createdbyx Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 Where/How does vs.net ide store custom toolbar info??? I have put up with this crap for the last time!! I need to know where and how the vs.net ide stores it's toolbar info data as it pertains to the toolbars location docking position, what buttons are on the toolbar, as well as what each buttons image is etc etc. Where is this information stored so I can get at it and so that I can write a app that saves this info so that if my toolbars get screwed up or I do a repair install of vb.net again I can restore the toolbar info back to they way it was.

AndreRyan Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 If you're toolbars get messed up, you can reset them to the default using: Tools>Options and pressing "Reset Window Layout" Quote .Net allows software to be written for any version of Windows and not break like Unmanaged applications unless using Unmanaged procedures like APIs. If your program uses large amounts of memory but releases it when something else needs it, then what's the problem?

Thank you this was exactly the info I was looking for! Yes the CmdUI.Prf file is the file that stores all of the toolbar info. To proove it I renamed the file then loaded vs.net and saw that hte toolbars were back to there default state. Then I created some sample toolbars and exited vs.net. Then I deleted the new CmdUI.prf vs.net created and then I renamed the old CmdUI.prf back to it's original file name. After that I loaded vs.net again and tada! the CmdUI.prf file is indeed the file that stores vs.net's toolbar(s) info. The CmdUI.prf file also stores any images the buttons on your custome made toolbars use! Edited January 2, 2004 by createdbyx Quote Created by: X createdbyx@gmail.com www.createdbyx.com
