Okay, I downloaded the msdn library when I got visual C# and C++ studio express '08. I can look through it find by going through the index, but when I go to the search, no matter what I search for, even when I know there is something in the local library, it always shows up as having 0 results. , but of course the online library works fine.
This is generally not a problem, but when I F1 selected items, I hate to wait several seconds for it to look it up as opposed to almost instantly.
The express version of the help file is seriously stripped down. There is nothign wrong with your installation, thats just the way it is.
nuts.
My problem is I can't actually find a copy of VS for sale that isnt the educational version. I know its the same product, but its nto the same liscence, and I don't feel like losing all my IP in an audit that isnt likely to happen but still.

Is that what you're looking for?
I think the academic allience are just the standard versions, I don't think they do the learners licences much anymore.
I stick to express since the JIT debugger doesn't crowd up my system internals.
This is not usual. Have you installed the library separated from the express installation? Because, as far as I know, only the library shipping with the express edition works.Quote:

I've been using VS Studio for around 6 months now, so I can't remember all the details, but you can try and configure your help system to never go online and see what happens.
Hmm, it seems to be working on my work computer. I don't know, I chose to install local documentation at home but it's not working. Is there a way to re-install it without re-installing visual C# express?
Not sure. But reinstalling C# express (and only now I'm realizing you are talking about C# Express Edition, not C++ Express edition, so this is the last you hear from me) won't most probably alter your current configuration and project settings. It doesn't with C++ Express Edition.
It's not a matter of functionality, they do the same thing. Its a matter of legality. You cant use the academic version in a business.Quote:

Oh, now you ruined the mood :( It's no fun if you want it.
Yes. I would have liked it. Trading my posts with your posts would have been fun. I have plenty to show. But in the meantime, because I'm also getting sick and tired of you I have reported you for harrassment.
Quiet frankly abachler I'm tired of you and your childish behavior on what concerns me.
I found they have the express msdn library online to download. I quite like the C# programming guide
