    Hi. I have installed Visual Studio 2005. The firts time I opened it, it prompts to select a particular windows layout. By mistake, I have selected the Visual Basic developer layout, and now I have everything changed. I mean, the workspace windows is docked at right, and I want it docked at the left side of the IDE. I want the IDE like Visual Studio 6.0!! :(( but by anxiety I've selected the wrong option in the first running and now I can't find how to change that selection. Please help, I can't programm with this VB layout!!! Do you understand? X|

      To change the VS2005 Window Layout, use following method: 1. On the Tools menu, choose Import and Export Settings. 2. On Welcome to the Import and Export Settings Wizard page, click Import selected environment settings and then click Next. 3. On the Save Current Settings page, select Yes, save my current settings, and then click Next. 4. In Which collection of settings do you want to import, select a settings collection from the list and then click Next. 5. In Which settings do you want to import, expand the list and select only the categories or category items you want to apply to your current settings. 6. Click Finish. 7. The Reset Complete page lists any errors associated with resetting your settings under Details. :)

              :-D I just migrated to 2005 a little over a week ago, but I remember this being one of the few times I actually read the message at install time that stated how to set it back if you change environment later. That still doesn't mean I would have been able to find it if I needed it! The settings import/export came in handy for seting up other machines, so I saw it again anyway :) Cheers! Mark
