    Help is updating to reflect your recent changes. This may take several minutes. ARGH!!! Accidentally hit F1 in VS. Now I have plenty of time to post a message.

    I use F1 help all the time and I haven't seen that in recent memory. What irks me no end is pressing F5 and having SQL Server (!) do that kind of thing. :wtf: I have decided not to have Visual Studio and SQL Server on the same system.

      Sounds pretty useful. Care to share where I can find it?

      If you're using VS2008, may I suggest here[^]?

        Sometimes I remove F1 from my keyboard.

                  Did you mean prepend a "C%23" to the beginning of the string? This is the only way I could get it to work, otherwise (with "C#") all that appeared in the Google Search Box was the 'C'. Not really useful. :) Or is there some devilish VB.Net trick that I am not aware of?

                    Are you sure you want to open help? It could take a while.

                        Cheers! It's just that I use VB so little that I'm never sure if it's me or the code. :-D

                          Good idea, because it only F's one.
