OK,
I'm completely baffled. I've been a programmer dating back to MSC version 8 for DOS.
For the past couple years I've mainly stuck to VC6 because the newer interface is just too full of fluff and non-intutitive for my tastes. But I do have three projects which require either VC2003 or the latest and "greatest"
One thing that has caused me to waste the most amount of time believable lately is the simple process of using the form editor in C++ to add a button/control of some time and THEN REMOVE IT CLEANLY when I'm done.
Often times a programmer just wants to drop in a control, do a little test and then delete it once he's tested some code snippet. Same thing goes with a message handler.
In the VC6 days I could just click on a function in the class view and hit my [DEL] button and poof it was gone/commented out.
Now for the life of me I can't figure out how to do the same task in VC7/8 without manually doing a search and deleting lines of code with the editor by hand. With uneditable intellisense, NCB files, CLW files etc. editing my code like this by hand these days seems like a disaster waiting to happen so I'm very reluctant to just chop things happenstance so I want to know the "official proper" way to do it.
There has to be a simple way, but all my searching, reading through books and looking for help files has proved fruitless to this point.
Anyone know a simple answer to a simple problem
