    So what Visual Studio Add Ons do people use? I'm using Visual Studio 2010 Premium if that makes a difference. TIA - Jeff.

    Solution load manager for very large solutions allowing you to delay load projects on startup or on demand. The api is built into vs2010 but they didn't expose it, this add-in does: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/66350dbe-ed01-4120-bea2-5564eff7b0b2[^]

      A *real* barbarian / outlaw never has to declare themselves so, others do it for them. ;)

      I think he's new, so a bit of orientation is called for, if for no other reason that to speed up the learning process.

          Resharper Resharper Resharper Oh yeah, and Resharper. :-D But seriously, Resharper rocks. Of course, it's not free. As far as free ones go: Productivity Power Tools Telerik MVC VSExtensions World of VS Default Browser Switcher Zen Coding Edit: I just found a new one that was just released which seems helpful. It's called Vingy (Visual Studio + Bing). It allows you to search a number of sources for help right from the IDE.

                  Download worked fine, installing failed, when I tried it. Why tell me this? Put it on Suggs&bugs forum if you must. :)

                      I have several thousand rounds of ammo at the ready, and all of my magazines are full I can take out several hundred hoard participants without having to reload a magazine (eight 30-round, six 20-round, eight 7-round, and five 12-round, and three 25-round). Let's see... that makes 551 dead or wounded, and I have a speed loader for the AR that lets me fill a 30 round magazine in about 10 seconds. It'll take them that long to climb over the dead/dying that are stacked at the door. I'm not worried (and I have a Bowie knife, but I only use it to cut off ears for my trophy cabinet).

                      Repelling a horde while naked? I don't think even AH-nold did that. Careful, you'll have hot brass raining all over your sensitive bits. I'd think that would spoil your aim. Keep a big tube of neosporin handy, just in case.

                        Chris - you really should look into Mole (by our very own Rockstar and k-dawg). If you do any SL/WPF development, then you will find that Karl's XAML Power Toys is a real time saver.

                        I have CDO, it's OCD with the letters in the right order; just as they ruddy well should be

                        “I have CDO, it's OCD with the letters in the right order; just as they ruddy well should be” That has got to be one of the best "sigs" I've seen. Unfortunately this makes me think of too many of my friends, including MYSELF! :laugh: LOL! Thanks for adding a laugh to my day. :)

                          Visual Assist. It is not free, but it is well worth the investment. I've made a long statement about how good it is, but then I decided to provide a simple quote instead:

                          David Smith, Tyco Electronic:

                          Visual Assist X has been so good I don't notice it anymore – until I use an IDE without it. Then, I wonder what's wrong with the IDE.

                          I am currently trial-testing VS 2010 and our current version of VA no longer works with it, so I have to do without. The above quote expresses esactly how I feel! You can find this quote right on the homepage of Visual Assist/[^]
