Hi, An interesting post and equally interesting answers. I've lived in Melbourne and Sydney, but moved to South East Queendland in 1960. (Yes, I am 68 and trying to learn programming!!). While this place isn't perfect, it's as close as I've been able to find anywhere in the world. Snow ? What's snow ?? The downside for people moving here is a couple of months of high humidity in summer, but the rest of the year is pretty good. Daytime, Winter around 15-18 degrees C, Summer mid 20's and up to early 30's. Accepting the weather is pretty much in the mind. I hate the cold, so don't want to live in it. Beers. VB (Victoria Bitter) known here as vomit bombs, but a lot of people like it. Australia has moved to a lot of mid strength beer around 3.5% the local favourite being XXXX Gold. I had an English friend here a couple of times and he loved it, so it can't be too bad. Fosters, don't know anyone who likes the stuff. My pathetic programming is only used in house so I'm not familiar with the IT possibilities here, sorry.

Hi, I've also had problem with auto hide solution explorer in VS2008. Finally found the solution. Window > Reset Window Layout This will change Solution Explorer to auto hide.
