Most of the issues could be dealt with bt providing a way to lock toolbars/control bars in place so that didn't happen accidentally. If they did it on the taskbar and in IE's toolbars, they can do it in Visual Studio. :rose: Anna :rose: Currently working mostly on: Visual Lint :cool: Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

Now, wait a minute. What you're describing is what VS2005 is--a Yugo. I need to lower the speed limit signs to compensate! A Ferrari, it is not. It's more like a tank. Now, Express, I guess I'd liken it to a paper airplane. Lots of lift on the initial thrust, but then it's all drag. Marc Pensieve Some people believe what the bible says. Literally.

VC6 makes me grimace...usually every time I try to drag one of tabs out of the Workspace View or Output Window and dock it elseware, or write two for-loops at the same scope using the same control variable...:doh: Anna :rose: Currently working mostly on: Visual Lint :cool: Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

Have you tried SharpDevelop 2? I wasn't a big fan of their 1.x versions but it is pretty impressive now and also free. Al
Well, do they have anything for web developers yet? The versions I have seen have nothing really in the line of developing ASP.NET sites. Rocky <>< Latest Post: SQL2005 Server Managemnet Studio timeouts! Blog: www.RockyMoore.com/TheCoder/[^]

I still prefer Borland Delphi (Delphi 2006) for WinApps and such. If I am doing web apps or services, then it's C# and ASP.Net 2.0 for me at this time. I'll have to see if Borland catches up/passes them when their 2.0 version comes out. sigh...
What about #D from ic#code (http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/)

there's a setting in the workspace options to tell that a variable defined in the for loop resides in this scope (disabled by default, but can be enabled)
Are you sure it's in VC6? Where exactly? I've never seen such option... Przemek http://cafesuite.net
