• Visual Studio Team System VB: Edit and Continue

  I have a problem with Visual Basics Edit & Continue for projects under Team Foundation server, the IDE says its Read-Only even if its checked out prior to debug start. In a non-source-controlled environment it works. You even see the little "lock" symbol on the tab-page with the source code in the IDE on the file you are current trying to edit, so clearly the IDE thinks its locked. Any ideas I ran into this once too, but maybe under different circumstances. I had a setup project attached to a primary project. I deleted the setup project, and then found that I'd recovered the ability to run edit and continue functionality with ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Learning resources videos won't download

  I am having trouble downloading the absolute beginner videos from the VS 2005 Express web pages. They were fine two days ago. I've tried the C# ones and the web designer ones and neither works. When I click on the links the download either hangs or loads 29% (always 29%) of the file then hangs. When, alternatively, I right click the link and try to "save target as" exactly the same happens (0 or 29% of the download).
