I typically change all the exceptions to stop in the debugger when thrown. Then I selectively go through and pick which ones to let the machine handle. Plus I end up adding several Win32 exceptions that COM and MSXML throw.

Then after a few days VS 2003 will loose all my changes and I have to start all over. (Once I notice).

So my comment/request is, is there a way to set these options via a macro or script or addin? Or some way to export-import these settings?

And I really wish MS had set the default to break into the debugger on them. Too many are just ignored by programmers because it does not throw up a big message box.

Phillip, The changes you make to the debugger's exception handling is on a per project basis. When you save the project, these changes should also be saved. If this same behavior occurs in Visual Studio 2005 beta 2, please report it via the Product Feeback Center (http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback).

Thanks!

Fish, first chance exceptions do not necessarilly indicate a problem in the application. If you configure Visual Studio to stop when the exception is thrown, you may be able to determine why it is occuring on your specific system.
