    Yeah, the most I've ever had in terms of projects in one solution, VC++ or VS, is 8 or 10. I get the distinct impression that MS has never tested the IDE with large numbers of projects. All that "eating their own dog food" propaganda aside, you can bet their internal build process is some sort of batch system. If their own devs had to deal with the instabilities that we cope with on a daily basis, it would be fixed in a heartbeat. Maybe we should start an Internet campaign to send the VS team thousands of bags of Purina Dog Chow. :cool:

    I can well imagine. We're up to 26 projects in our main codebase now, so I'm crossing my fingers we don't run into any of those sort of problems here!

    Now that sounds like a plan... :evil grin:

      The IDE crashes almost every time I right click on the "Properties" tree item in my WPF project. By "Crashes", I mean, the program just shuts down without so much as a whimper.

      Do you still grab red-hot coals out of fires with your bare hands too? If you refuse to learn, you'll get little sympathy from me. As Bill Cosby said, "Tonto, don't go to town!"

          That worked for now, but I'm sure I'll have to do it again in an hour or so. BTW, I've only seen reports of this problem on Vista64 machines (coincidentally, that's what I have on this box).

            My largest solution has sixty-one projects and it gives me no trouble.

                Why do they feel the need to manage my downloads? That TFM crap better not interfere with any of the other stuff I do...

                  BTW, which installer do I run? X64 or X86? I'm running on a Dell with Vista64...

                    x64. x86 = 32 bit version.

                      I believe it's the Windows6.0-KB963676-x64.msu one.

                        PS IA64 = the Intel Itantic. (kinda amazed MS is still supporting it at all).
