Of course I can't find certain things, but I'm assuming that they've just moved them somewhere else. Gonna have to do a lot of reading and tinkering in the next couple of weeks. Paul

                      Thank you. I'm sure it will be. Can anyone reccommend a good primer book to get started? Paul

                              That really got to me too, and still does. So, I spent a few hours cursing away at the VB.NET macro studio, and wrote a macro to do this. It will take the selected text (like VC6 used to be able to do), or if the cursor is on the string it will use the string (VC7 requires it to be a valid #include X|), and it will attempt to open the file using similar rules to the IDE: 1. If the file can be found via the current directory devstudio is in or whatever, open it. 2. If not, then check the directory of the current source file. 3. If still not found, check the include directories for the active configuration. [edit]it doesn't currently distinguish between <> and "".[/edit] Then I hooked it up to Ctrl+Shift+G, and it seems to work pretty well, though it may not be exact. Think it would be worth a small article? Chris Richardson
