          Fantastic! Like you I don't read the manual much (ok so maybe I do need a VS.NET IDE book) and was very disapointed to see the BLOCK selection button from VC6 not there in VS.NET. Thanks Nathan.

Perhaps it is on the CD, but then again... I just dive into an app hoping to get somewhere... Isn't that how you learn to use an application? I figure if it is a windows based app, then it should work just like every other app (ie File, Edit, View menus... and such). If I can't figure it out after a few days time, then the app is wrong :) A good example of working the way an app should is Office. They all work the same, except of course for their speciality functions. -Nathan --------------------------- Hmmm... what's a signature?

            Actually it's just Alt+Drag (in VC 6 at least). Did you know this one: when a list control in report mode has the focus, hit Ctrl and the + key on the numeric keypad. I'll let you discover what it does. :cool: --Mike-- "So where does that leave us?

            > when a list control in report mode has the focus, hit Ctrl and the + key on > the numeric keypad Similarly, hitting the asterisk (*) on the numeric keypad when a tree control has focus expands every node below the currently selected item. (warning: could take a while when on C:\)
