Where is my "Start Page" in 2005 : Simple Trick
If you work with a lot of different projects / solutions, you probably like the ease of use, that the VS Start page offers. I end closing the start page, so that it's not in the way after I start working on a project.
In VS2003, the start page was one click away on the help menu.
In 2005, it was moved to the View | Other Windows menu item, two clicks away, and a lot of careful mouse movement.
I'm not sure why I didn't think of this before, but it's easy to move back, and I love the idea, so I thought I'd share. You probably already know how to do this, but if not, right click on any blank toolbar area, and select Customize. You'll see this window.
Simply navigate to View | Show Start Page, and drag that item up to the Help menu. Then close the customize menu. Vwaaaala - you now have your "Show Start Page" on the 2005 Help Menu.
