I just upgraded my Compuware Dev Partner Studio Professional from 7.1 to 7.2.
After the upgrade find in files stopped working.
Clicking the find button or selecting [Edit][Find and Replace][Find in files] does nothing.
Uninstalling VAX fixes the problem,
re-installing VAX introduces the problem.

Offhand, we cannot think of a reason for the failed "Find in Files."
Anyone else with the same problem? |

More info:
After opening a solution, find in files starts working, but without an open solution, it does not work. |

would you expect this to work with no open solution? until you open a solution, VS isnt going to have a list of files and directories to search.
looking in find in files in .NET 2003 the only search options that arent tied to your solution seem to be "current document" and "all open documents". the other options all seem related to the settings in the current solution. |

Hi,
I've installed 1239 today and have a similar problem. Each time I'm searching in the entire solution the find is stopped automatically.
Here's what it displays:
Find all "SetParams", Subfolders, Find Results 2, Entire Solution, "*.c;*.cpp;*.cxx;*.cc;*.tli;*.tlh;*.h;*.hpp;*.hxx;*.hh;*.inl;*.rc;*.resx;*.idl;*.asm;*.inc"
No files were found to look in.Find was stopped in progress.
I don't have devpartner on this machine. |

I'd like to add that the only search that work on my machine now are:
- Current Document
- All Open Documents
All others fails.

I've tried to uninstall and revert back to my old VAX version and the problem was still there so I reinstalled 1239.
Finally a reboot seems to fix this problem.. |

good answer 
out of curiosity i have just tried this in .NET 2002 with VAX 1239 and no solution open. the dialog pops up fine for me, and the only place i can do a find is "Visual C++ Include Directories"
i am curious as to why you would want to do this *shrug* i am good at being curious |

Because VS is a powerful "search in files" tool, and searching for files does not require a solution to be open. |

i definitely need to compare find in files between my home and work machines. at work in .NET 2003 with no solution open i can see what you mean, there is an option to specify which directory tree to search.
at home in .NET 2002 i don't recall seeing that option. until i spotted that option this wasn't making any sense, since there was no way to search in a given set of files.
it had never occurred to me you could use VS like that. now i see what you mean, i can see why you want this to work. |

I ended up on this forum after doing a search on "No files were found to look in.Find was stopped in progress." in google.
Every now and then, I cannot use the 'find in files' in VS.NET2003. The dialog pops up just fine, but after pressing Ok, I get the message above. A reboot removes the problem, but I don't like to reboot my machine, so I use the windows find in files until the functionality returns (after a while, say a few hours).
It appears I'm currently using the latest build (10.0.1246.0, although I haven't upgraded for a while?). Anyone knows a fix for my problem?
edit: I also have boundschecker installed, but the problem occured long before I installed it |
