Selecting a file in editor changes solution explorer

Is there a way to tell vs.net 2003 the solution explorer not to select
a file that i switch to in the editor?

It really annoys me. because it opens sub folders, it jumps around,
with so many files in my project...

Thanks in advance.

Thank you Mattias, I had the opposite problem in VS2005 and have now
been able to fix it, I thought it was a 'feature' :-)

Hi, Curiosity - when you right-click on a file in the VS.Net Solution Explorer and select "Exclude from Project", it continues to be shown in the Solution Explorer as a sort of ghostly outline (as long as you have selected "Show All Files"). Yet if you open up the project file (which is just XML) in a text editor, the reference to the now-excluded file has gone. Question: how is VS.Net still able to show the file in Solution Explorer...

If I follow the steps on http://www.dhtmlcentral.com/tutorials/tutorials.asp?id=11 to add .js files to a document on demand, let's say by <body onload="blah();">, how can I reliably tell that it has been loaded?

If I code for IE, I can check all the document.scripts.readyState values (not being "uninitialized" or...

I'm building a web application that is analogous to the Windows XP file explorer in function. The left column contains a TreeView, and the right column a DataGrid populated by selecting TreeView nodes. The TreeView populates dynamically as there are a significant number of nodes. The DataGrid displays both the items and the nodes from the TreeView. Using the explorer analogy this means the TreeView shows folders, and the DataGrid folders...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
