Guess the title is auto explanatory : P
I was using that on my job this week and I’ve decided to share it. It’s just a few lines of codes but make things really easy when you need to get information from Excel files.
Everyone knows that Visual Studio can be such a great IDE, but sometimes you feel that something is missing.
It’s okay if you have to search for each file in Visual Solution when you have four…maybe five files, but things can go really bad when you have sixty…seventy files in your solution. It’s a lot of waste of time having to search file by file every time you need something. Then we all think: doesn’t Visual Studio have a quick open file? Something that make possible for me to search files by the name, like quick open from TextMate? No, unfortunately Visual Studio doesn’t come with that option, but happly we have a solution. I’ve trying to find that for six months or more, until I got that plugin: Quick Open for Visual Studio 2008.
That’s a complement developed for Visual Studio which makes possible the quick open file function. You press the keys and the window is going to open. You type the file’s name (or part of it) you want, find it, and then press “enter” to open it.
The installation is pretty simple, just download the component here @stJhimy’s github.
