Hi erk,

Here is where you can find the option to turn off intelliSense:

* Select Tools -> Options

* In that dialog, navigate to Text Editor - Basic - General

* Uncheck "Auto list members"

IntelliSense will still appear when you press Ctrl+Space. (Ctrl+Space will show you everything.) You can also use Ctrl+J to display just the relevant items for the current context.

#5 今日のワンポイント : VB の IntelliSense に入力中のフィルタ処理機能を追加 (Lisa Feigenbaum)

VB2008 の IntelliSense の設計目標は、この機能を使うユーザーの生産性を最大限に高めることでした。ユーザーがこの機能を使うときの問題点の 1 つは、 IntelliSense であまりにも多くの入力候補が表示されるため、目的の項目に近づいているかどうかを判断するのが難しいことでした。基本的には、すべての入力候補を読んで確認する必要がありました。これでは効率的とは言い難いですよね。この問題を解決するため、

I've been using Visual Assist X for awhile for essentially a single feature. Filtering. I like the way they filter far more than the way Visual Studio does.

Instead of assuming I know how the variable, propery, method, etc. starts, they let you type any part of it, including acronyms. This has saved me a tremendous amount of time and I really wish that it was built into Visual Studio (add-ins always seem to cause more problems than they are worth).

If you want to know more about how Visual Assist X works, I've blogged about it on my website (http://www.redwerb.com/blogs/redwerb/archive/2007/04/13/visual-assist-x.aspx).

Hi,

I, Rajeev Jain, am writing a book for school students in India in which Visual Basic is the main programming languages. This is as per Indian CBSE syllabus. For this I have downloaded the Express Edition of VB 2008.

My sincere apologies for using this medium to contact you as I have no others option to reach you or the concerned person. I wanted to check if I am allowed to distribute the VB Express edition to Indian school students or not? Also, is there any possibility that I get some help from Microsoft to promote the Visual Basic education in Indian School and Colleges?

I realized (after giving free training in many schools and colleges) that there are not many quality teachers to teach students. More than students, it’s the teachers’ training that’s more important.

Looking forward for an early reply.

Thanks

There is no current option to turn the filtering on or off. But if you press Ctrl+J at any time, that will give you the full list. That is one way you can toggle. Backspacing will also switch to the full list.

Thanks,

Lisa

I love it and hate it at the same time, but mostly love it. I would be happiest if there was a feature similar to the Ctrl key and transparency that turned the filter on and off. Keep it on by default but allow us to un-filter if needed without backspacing.

It should be able to be turn on, or off (that future) in a options (somewhere) so if people like the guy had some hard time with that future, could be able to adjust it to be off.

But I think that future is great!!!
