I still haven't found the VS environment all that friendly even with scripts for JFW. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but as I type this thing keeps popping up telling me I have errors... Well of course I have errors, I haven't finished typing in the code yet you silly program! Give me a program that lets me happily type away, and then gives me help when I ask for it, not automatically, and I'm happy. A couple people gave suggestions for fixing it, but I can't seem to find the options to change that they mentioned. Perhaps it's because I'm using the express version, not sure. but anyway I agree with you. I like being able to get quick help on functions and the like, but I really don't like having to fight the environment when I'm supposed to be programming or in my case, learning to program.

But the way the IDE continually changes focus of the active pane, for example, just kills productivity. Code completion is OK, I guess, but I never really thought it was that hard to finish a word you've already started typing. I'm really trying to get a handle on VS as it does seem to have its uses. But as of now I'm spending way more time than I can afford messing with the IDE, although you certainly imply that taking the IDE out of the equasion won't make my life much easier. Guess I have some knuckling up to do. *sigh* Thanks for the info. If I had a few weeks to sit down and learn VS for what it is, I might have more success. But I have projects coming in as fast as I can handle them, and I'm certainly getting my Java and C++ stuff done loads faster than I am my .net stuff on account of Java and C++ not having environments I'm fighting with. Maybe it'll just take time, and hopefully I can tred water. Maybe I should have learned VS over the summer, but I've always been a typesetter more than a WYSYWYG kind of guy and figured I'd be able to keep it that way. Live and learn. And sleep soon, maybe.
