editing some C++ code in VS .NET 2003 with VAX 1221
i am cutting a line with the shortcut key CTRL_L, a default key binding.
if i now go CTRL_SHIFT_V this line is not listed 
instead if i select the entire line and use CTRL_X to cut it, the line is listed when i press CTRL_SHIFT_V |

Wow, Ctrl-L cuts the current line... learned something new, thanks.
Yeah, it fails for me too in 1223 / .NET 2003... |

i have just discovered, by accident, that CTRL-X cuts the current line, and CTRL-C copies the current line. there is no need to highlight the line first!
so, why isnt this fact listed in the default shortcut keys help page in VS or is this something VAX is doing?
either way, this works with CTRL_SHIFT_V  |

It's definitely the IDE, not VAX, doing it. But don't feel bad; I've been using Visual C++ since day one, and only found out about Ctrl-X and Ctrl-C two years ago! There's always something new to learn, I guess...

In VS 6, you can control that. Under Options | Compatibility, there is a checkbox for "Enable copy without selection." If this is not selected, then hitting Ctrl-C or Ctrl-X when nothing is selected will do nothing (including not losing your recent cut/copy).
I have searched for this option in .NET, but cannot find it. If anyone knows where it is, please do tell.

with VAX, use ctrl_shift_v, which shows you a popup list of the last 10 copy / cut strings. so you havent lost the last copy / cut, it is just further down the history.
as for this option, i have just had a look in VS .NET 2003 and i am not seeing any sign of it either. so i presume MS removed it. |
