1.Determine if program is running in Visual Studio IDE

How do you determine if a program is running in the Visual Studio
IDE/debugger as opposed to standalone? We often include support files in the
same folder as the executable and would so something like:

Dim SupportFile As String
SupportFile = Application.StartupPath & "\SupportFile.txt"

But of course this fails when running in the IDE as the executable is in the
BIN folder so we need to do something like this:

Readonly Property SupportFilesPath() As String
    Get
        If IsIde() Then
            SupportFilesPath = Application.StartupPath & "..\"
        Else
            SupportFilesPath = Application.StartupPath & "\"
        End If
    End Get
End Property

Need to implement that IsIde() function/property...

Thanks, Rob.

2.Internet Explorer problem after upgrade from Visual Studio 2003 to Visual Studion 2005

I use following C# code behind an aspx file to send a *.pdf file to the 
Internet Explorer.
The variable "buffer" is of type byte[] and is filled with the contents of a 
*.pdf file.

    this.Response.ClearHeaders();
    this.Response.Clear();
    this.Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
    this.Response.BinaryWrite(buffer);
    this.Response.End();

All works fine for years. When the aspx file is requested, the acrobat 
reader is activated and the pdf file is shown.

Now I have installed Visual Studio 2005 parallel to Visual Studio 2003. All 
seems to run as expected, except the pdf file is not shown anymore. The 
Internet Explorer 6 shows only a white background, but does not start 
acrobat reader. When I try to see the source text, I get an error message, 
that the "xml source cannot be shown".

After deinstalling Visual Studio 2005 by Windows System Recovery all runs 
normal again.
Any idea?

4.Web UserControl - how to determine whether running in IDE

As the Web UserControl class has no DesignMode property 
(it's not derived from Component), how do you tell if 
your UserControl is running in the IDE.

I've got a public property on my UserControl that 
persists it's value to the ViewState in its "set" 
accessor, and reads it's value from there in its "get" 
accessor. Obviously, at design time the ViewState is not 
available and the IDE throws an exception when I open the 
UserControl's "edit window" in the IDE. I know for sure 
that this is due to my property's "get" accessor trying 
to read from the ViewState. 

How do I determine if my Usercontrol is running from 
within the IDE?

Thanks

5.Determine running from IDE

Hi,

I would like to write a line of code which will get used in several 
debugging points, to look like this..

If app.Mode = IDE then Stop Else End

Or if Stopped ended an EXE mode that would be good.

Application.StartupPath?
