    Ok, this makes me feel really stupid, but when I am looking at the code view in VS.NET I have the two drop down boxes at the top. This is very similar to VB6 where the left combo box lists all the objects(i.e. - buttons, grids, labels) and the right most combo box will list all methods and properties associated to what is selected in the left combo box. Why do I only see my forms for my project listed in the left combo box? Where are my objects that are on that form. How can I see all the methods and properties available to those object on my form? Please someone point me in the right direction. Thanks :) Nick Parker

      On the top right is a dialog box where you can choose class view, solution explorer or resource view ( the last is useless, I've not seen anything there yet ,and I've added resources ). That's where you'll find your methods and classes. Christian The tragedy of cyberspace - that so much can travel so far, and yet mean so little. "I'm somewhat suspicious of STL though.

        Thanks, Now I probably sound like I am complaining(I am), but is there any way that I can move this or have it view the methods and properties the "old-fashioned way" or should I just give in? Anyway, Thanks again Christian Nick Parker

          VB.NET uses those drop down boxes as you expect, so the answer is yes, but you would have to code in VB.NET Not that that is a bad thing :) -- David Wengier Sonork ID: 100.14177 - Ch00k

            Yes, you can drag/redock and size that dialog. I'd also guess you'd get something like the old Wizard bar if you right clicked in the toolbar area and checked what other toolbars you can make visible.

              What would be the "old-fashioned way"? After allot of erratic *docking-window* rubber-band snapping, swearing, and some crying, I finally have the IDE back in a state where it almost feels like a *better* Visual Studio 6. :)

                    That’s ok; I am coming from Visual C++ IDE, not the VB IDE, same problems, different perspective. :cool:
