    I have a number of dialogs set up in my project in multiple programs. I'm developing in C+ MFC VS 2010. The Tab Order control wasn't showing in the View menu. The Tools->Configure dialog showed it in the menu tree, but it didn't show at all. I was able to add it by going through adding a menu item. The dialog shows two Tab Orders, but the menu now only shows one, but it's always grayed out, even if I have the resource editor open showing the dialog I want to set the tab order for, but it's always grayed out. Anyone ever run into this and if so how did you fix it? I also had some trouble logging in. I've used Firefox with this site for years, but today when I went to Codeproject and clicked on the top "Sign in" link, nothing happens. I got the login on another browser and I got a login that work in Firefox when I went to the Lounge and clicked on the login in the center of the page. I made sure that Firefox had a popup exception for Codeproject and this is new behavior. It worked a few weeks ago when I was here.

      Why are you using VS 2010 ?

      In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity. - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

        Because he can?

        In Word you can only store 2 bytes. That is why I use Writer.

          Probably for the same reason I and my team continue to use VS2008. Our engineering management are a bunch of hardware engineers, and nothing makes them clutch their pearls harder than the idea of changing our tooling.

            Because it's the last usable version.

                      Several reasons. For one I like it more than later versions and I don't use the features added in the later versions. Additionally I'm working on one project that will not compile in any compiler after VS 2010. The primary programmer on the project is the best self taught programmer I've ever seen. He wrote 99% of it after teaching himself C, but he's also a weirdo (I think he's on the spectrum) who only uses CRT monitors and Visual C 6. I was able to port the code to VC 2010 and it compiles OK with a few compiler directives, but it will not compile in anything newer. The project I'm working on the bulk of my time was started in 2010 and its one of those if it ain't broke don't fix it.
