This is also available in the VS 2008 Power Commands addin,

But that's cool to see how easy it is implement with the use of a macro. Anyway, I didn't know you were the guy you worked on it. Really awesome feature DJ!

This looks great! However, when I try to run it on one of my larger solutions, it works for a while and then eventually fails with the error:

The message filter indicated that the application is busy. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8001010A (RPC_SERVERCALL_RETRYLATER))

Any ideas how to get this to work with larger solutions?

Excellent, great for tidying up after I've tried 10 different ways to solve a problem ...

Works a charm in a test solution. Will test it on a large solution soon.

Applied for a large solution. Great work done. Thanks.

Also got an error when running it on a large project:

System call failed. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010100 (RPC_E_SYS_CALL_FAILED))

I'm current doing a code review and cleanup so I will try this as part of that effort.

To be honest, to this point I had completely ignored the "Organize Usings" menu item. To bad for me; it's really handy! I don't like unused code of any kind, so this is the kind of simple feature that gets me through a project with a lot less stress.

Is there a way in VS.NET to order the fields and properties and methods automatically? and put them into #region blocks? or have a macro of some tool? Know of any?

A short while ago I wrote an add-in for the same purpose that you can find here:

It would be cool if there was an a capability of removing any unnecessary references too.

Cool!

Probably not what you want to hear, but (third party) tools like ReSharper can do this also, as wel as removing unused references.

Maybe you can look at some of its features while developing a new version of VS?

Why i can't read .aspx source code if it has .cs file?

Hi, i have a problem about reading .aspx file. If projectItem ends with .aspx and it has .aspx.cs when my .aspx window is active it reads the .cs code that it has. But if my item hasn't a .cs file it has only .aspx file it reads the source code of aspx it works correctly.How Can I solve this problem? Here is my code :

Private Sub ReadCodeFile(ByVal projectItem As EnvDTE.ProjectItem)

' Read file Content

Dim codeWindow As Window = projectItem.Open(Constants.vsViewKindCode)

codeWindow.Activate()

'Load text into text buffer

Dim objTextDoc As EnvDTE.TextDocument = codeWindow.Document.Object()

'Manipulate text as data in text buffers

Dim objEditPt As EditPoint = objTextDoc.StartPoint.CreateEditPoint()

'Move the object to the beginning of the document

objEditPt.StartOfDocument()

'Returns the text between the current location and the specified location in the buffer

content = objEditPt.GetText(objTextDoc.EndPoint)

codeWindow.Close(vsSaveChanges.vsSaveChangesNo)

End Sub

please alert me by my email burcu_hamamcioglu@hotmail.com

The functionalitity to remove redundant usings in the entire solution is part of the ReSharper add on for a long time.

In addition to fixing this in the next release, how about a process whereby such obvious needs aren't missed going forward? There is something wrong with the process when something so obvious falls through the cracks.

Awesome macro, but it halts when it encounters a C# source file with a "Build Action" set to None. This is because the Intellisense > Organize Usings menu is not available for files with BuildAction=None. I've Googled for a solution but couldn't find a way to poll the projectItem for BuildAction. Any ideas? Thanks.
