      I work in Visual Studio everyday, mostly Silverlight API, using C# or VB. What I can't figure out is what project type to work in for profiles, and then how to actually use that project as a profile.

      I know someone has a walkthrough for this - I sure would appreciate it.

      Thanx

      Profiles are XML files alone by themselves. You can load an XML into VS so that you have tagging and everything highlighted, but i don't think theres a particular project type that is designated for XML development.

      why do you wanna open a standalone xml in Visual Studio?
      have you ever tried notedpad++? it's based on Scintilla and can be customized with plugins (if you're not familiar with XML, try the "XML Tools" Addon)

      if you're looking for a "XML IDE" (tho i dont understand why one would need such thingy) try <oXygen/>

      Thanks for both replies. VS is just a creature of habit for me I believe, because I am in it every day. I have been using Dreamweaver and Notepad++ to work on my profiles, although I wasn't aware of an add-on.
