I am going to leave this comment about wrapping a line because I looked far and wide for the answer to this simple question about line breaks:  How do you cause Visual Studio 2005 to do a line break when you press enter instead of creating a new paragraph? The answer is  Shift+Enter.  

Profound isn't it. Not really. But it took a lot of searching to find it. May it will be easier to find from your blog.

Good tip.  Doesn't look like i have it in the queue, so i'm glad you posted it here.  Thanks!

Additionally, Shift+Delete will cut the current line.

I use WordWrap constantly.  It's one of the first options I change in Visual Studio.  Personally I don't how you can work without it turned on... but isn't that the way with all user settings.  We each have our customizations we have to have.
