ATTENTION: I've decided to put the upgrade on hold due to a compatibility issue of our server environment with the latest CS installer package. CS 2008 now requires SQL Server 2005 as the backend DB but our database server currenlty has SQL Server 2000 installed on it. I'll resume the upgrade once I figure out when Telligent is releasing a patch to the schema compatibility issue. For now, we will continue to use the old version of CS while waiting for the said patch. If you have any questions about this process, please don't hesitate to post them on our forums and I'll answer them as soon as I can. Thanks for your patience and support guys! I'll let you know as soon as this is resolved. - Keith Rull

Tracking active item in Solution Explorer

I find it hard when the currently active code sheet or item is not highlighted in solution explorer and there were times when i couldn't easily see where the option is so this is for my future reference.

VS 2003:  Tools->Options->Environment->Projects and Solution
VS 2005:  Tools->Options->Projects and Solution

I like to be in control. I map Ctrl-9 to View.TrackActivityinSolutionExplorer and press the keys when I need to find out where I am in the Solution Explorer.
