• .NET Development Open/Read file from Solution, not from disk

  I want to read in the contents of a text file, where the text file is an item in my .NET solution, not a file residing on the disk. How do I find this file   For example, in my C# code, I can create a StreamReader:   System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader( ))   My .NET solution has a folder for my project and all the source code files. It also has a “Solution Items” folder, with a text file in it. I want to read that text file. If you are building from within Visual Studio (which I suspect that you are) and the file is part of your project, I would recommend copying it to the output dire ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) What support does DLinq have for SQLXML, and can I do XLinq queries with it?

  Hi there, Just interested to know how I can translate a "XML" column into DLinq.  Does it support it only as a string primitive as of yet   Better yet, any chance of it being supported as a XDocument   I can most likely do this with custom read and writes, but doing something like this is what I would consider most correct: [Table] class Users {     [Column(DbType="uniqueidentifier", Id=true)]     public Guid UserID;     [Column(DbType="xml")]     public XDocument UserDetails; } Does this work now and I just am not doing it right   Does anyone have any i ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Can't download Express registration benefits

  Hi everyone. I'm trying to access the free downloads that come with registration, but I only see the Web Developer downloads listed. I don't see the icons, components, or book that come with C#. I assume they would all be listed on one page, but they aren't there. How can I find them Thanks, John Salerno P.S. I don't understand how to download what *is* there either. The link to the Web Developer book says it's a pdf, but when you download it, the file is an aspx file that won't do anything when opened in WD. When opened in an internet browser, it just tries to download itself again. Maybe the site will be updated and fixed tomorrow. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Bug with Macros in VS 2005

  Here's a Repro for a simple Macro in VS 2005 that should open a file in the solution explorer. VS 2005 Records the Macro, but when it comes time to play it back, it simply won't work.

Close EVERYTHING (including Form1.cs) 3. CTRL+SHIFT+R to start recording a new macro. 4. double click, in the solution explorer, on Form1.cs. 5. In the macro toolbar, stop recording the macro. 6.
