command prompt IN visual studio .NET

Greetings:

After using it at my place of work, I have found that Visual Studio is
indeed very convenient -- I can open all sorts of documents and even
browse the net without ever leaving the IDE. But I would just like to
know if I could push it a little further:

could I have the command prompt (cmd) show up as one of the files
being displayed in Visual Studio under its own tab within my current
project, or do I HAVE to open up a separate window just for the
command prompt.

The reason for this is that I write programs that performs I/O on
stdin and stdout (scanf, printf, etc), switching between apps on my
computer at work is kind of slow, and having all those command prompt
windows open clutters up my taskbar.

Regards,

Almost everybody in this newsgroup is using VB6 or lower. While you may get
a stray answer to VB.NET questions here, you should ask them in newsgroups
devoted exclusively to .NET programming. Look for newsgroups with either the
word "dotnet" or "vsnet" in their name.

For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups...

microsoft.publi c.dotnet.genera l
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb
microsoft.publi c.vsnet.general

For the news.devx.com news server, try these

vb.dotnet.discu ssion
vb.dotnet.techn ical

There are some others, but these should get you started.

Hello all. I need to set up a batch file to work w/ the Visual Studio.NET 2003 command prompt. However, when I run the batch file it uses the standard command prompt. Is there a way to differentiate batch files between the two prompts? Also, where might I find information on the differences between the 2 prompts? Thanks, Herb

Yes, I am guessing that typing cmd in the run windows will bring up the command prompt, but not the vs.net command prompt. Is there a switch(s) for accessing the vs.net command prompt? Or do you get to it from the VS.net IDE? Thanks, Rog

I am trying to find out how to access the VS 2003 .Net command prompt. I am trying to execute the 'csc' command against a module but have no idea where to find the command prompt. Here's a stupid question --> Could this actually be the MSDOS CMD prompt that I cann access from the start run command?? Thanks in advance. . .Tom Johnson *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***
