Hi,
Some how I have my Solution Explorer and Prperties in a tab mode,  I want to
get it back to where both of them are showing at the same time.  How do I do
this?
Thanks,
Brian

Did you already try to drag around the properties tab?

Yes, I tried.  Wants to stay on top.  This is bugging me and Just can't seem
to figure it out....

Hi ,

Try this :
1. Right click on the Solution Explorer tab, then de-select the
"Dockable" property of the tab (change it to "Floating").
2. This should separate the tab from other tabs that it was grouped with.
3. Now again Right click on the Solution Explorer tab, and change it
back to "Dockable".
4. Drag this window towards the top of your Properties Tab.
5. This should result in the Solution Explorer being visible above the
Properties Tab at the same time.

HTH,

Regards,

Cerebrus.

Hi Brian,

Did you do *exactly* as I mentioned in my post ? You must drag the
Solution Explorer window to the top of the existing docked
tab(Properties) . If you drag it toward the bottom, it will go into Tab
mode.

It sure works for me.

Wish you luck ! :-)

Regards,

Cerebrus.
