What happened to the Class view in VS2005?In VS2003 There is a Class viewer option in Solution explorer which lets me
browse the classes in my project. This feature is missing from VS2005 Express edition which I downloaded. Is this feature present in the professional version? I hope its there because I am quite used to the class viewer. Are there significant differences between the Express version and the professional version in the interface? All Microsoft's website mentions is that the Express Edition interface is 'Streamlined' and Professional's interface is 'Full' Any idea about this?

I dunno, but if the class view is not present in the prof. version, too, maybe they dropped it because the object browser is a good replacement and both are very similar. A guess only.

Try going to View - Other Windows - Class View. -- Peter Macej Helixoft - http://www.vbdocman.com VBdocman - Automatic generator of technical documentation for VB, VB ..NET and ASP .NET code Hello Peter,
I had already checked the View menu for ClassView. It's not there. Maybe that is a part of what Microsoft means by 'streamlined' interface for the Express edition.

However, as said by others, you may want to use the object browser instead, which is hopefully available in the Express edition too. Personally I have never used the class view although the versions of VS I am using include it. -- M S Herfried K. Wagner M V P <URL:http://dotnet.mvps.org/> V B <URL:http://classicvb.org/petition/> Microsoft also removed the Solution Configurations combobox on the Standard
toolbar (it is not even hidden there) in VB 2005 but the command exists so, your last chance: can you go to the menu "Tools", "Customize...", section "Environment", "Keyboard" and search for the command "View.ClassView"? If it is not there, then it was totally removed in the Express Edition. -- Show quoteHide quoteBest regards, Carlos J.

in the Express edition. If this is missing from the Standard edition too then I am glad that I opted for professional. Another thing I noticed was the variables watch window which listed the values of all variables in scope during debug is not present either. That's an important feature too. Hmm... Wonder what else is missing in the streamlined interface. Most sites that talk about the differences between the streamlined interface and the full interface do not mention these factors which are very important in a buying decision. Why doesn't Microsoft provide more details about this on their website? Cyril The bottom line is that the Express editions are intended for students,
hobbyists, etc. not for serious programming. So, previously you had the SDK command-line compilers and notepad and now you have a minimal IDE... -- Show quoteHide quoteBest regards, Carlos J.
