    One more request for VS 2008

    Please is there anyone who knows where the cached info for VS 2008 is. I
    have had so many troubles with this IDE that it is ridicules. Now everytime
    I change something in the main form I get a new code inserted into the .vb
    file ( not good) for three events defined by a usercontrol that is present
    on the form.

    All I have to do is make a change and at the end of the code there it is.

    MS WHY DON'T YOU SPEND TIME ON MAKING A GOOD IDE??
    Please.

      Well, it's very slow, but I don't have a problem with it at all. What do
      you mean with "cached info"? Can you please describe the steps to
      reproduce the behavior? What do you change in the main form? Which code
      do you get inserted and in which file (form.vb or form.designer.v b)?
      Which events or what control?

          What I mean by cached is that there are 6 lines that get inserted when (not
          always) I make a change to the main form. This could be menu , change a
          background color etc. Cached is also the place where the outlining
          information is kept. I have looked at a hex editor version of the file and
          there is nothing I can see that changes when I change the outlining of a
          subroutine.

          As for the IDE in general. When I make a change to a form I expect the
          ..designer.vb file to change. I expect no changes to the .vb file. When I
          see changes listed I know what has happened (the bad code gets put into the
          ..vb file).

          Surely to goodness a sanity check says that I (as the IDE) should know what
          the repurcusions of a change are. Changing a button's text or position does
          not change the .vb code. That is one of the main principals of development.
          Presentation which the .designer.vb file and code which is in the .vb file.
          This is not the first problem I have found with this IDE and VS 2008 is much
          closer to VS 2002/3 than VS 2005 in its stability.

              I'm afraid, I can't help as I haven't experienced this yet.

                      Can't say I've experienced any issues with 2008 yet - I'm running it
                      on Vista Ultimate and XP Pro. Can you provide a small sample project
                      that demonsrates the behavior? Then maybe we can try and recreate it
                      on our own machines.

                          Hello Lloyd,
                          What I mean by cached is that there are 6 lines that get inserted when
                          (not always) I make a change to the main form. This could be menu ,
                          change a background color etc. Cached is also the place where the
                          outlining information is kept. I have looked at a hex editor version
                          of the file and there is nothing I can see that changes when I change
                          the outlining of a subroutine.
                          Sounds like the action of a Macro or addin.

                          What are these 6 lines? or are you suggesting that they are just Newlines?

                          Has someone gotten access to your machine and placed a long lasting April
                          fool macro on it?
