    Has anyone had the same problem as me with Visual Studio 2005 where the " Find and Replace " dialog box doesn't search " Entire Solution " even when you select the option?

    I am not sure why it is not working for you,  one thing to make sure is to check the "Hidden Text" checkbox.

     Thanks for the suggestion, yes I'm pretty sure I've checked all the   appropriate options -- do you never get this sort of problem?

    Answer

    Hi,

    To better understand your issue, please confirm the following infomration:

    • Firstly, please try to run devenv /resetsettings or devenv /setup from Visual Studio Command Prompt.
    • If we disable Add-ns (“Tools” | “Add-in Manager”) and run “devenv.exe /safemode”, do we still have the problem? This can eliminate the possibility that third party Add-ins are causing problems.
    • If this cannot help you, you can try to remove the Visual Studio 2005 and install it. Please folowing How to remove Visual Studio 2005http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907965) if you uninstall Visual Studio.

     

    I hope this helps.
