Hi all!

I just have a simple question. How to turn off VB-feature of underlining incorrect code? I tried to turn off all check boxes in Options Dialog(Text Editor->Basic->Basic Specifics), but in vain. I use VS 2005. It is needed for improving perfomance just a bit. How to do THIS?
Thanks in advance,
AAP

Yes, I just tried it, but this doesn't work. Any other suggestions?

With Some settings in the IDE, you need to Exit VB, and go back into VB, in order for the changes to be applied. Try it, if that doesn't work, then I'm stumped

Now I tried to turn off the check-boxes and re-enter VB-environment, but and this didn't have any effect :(! Well, now I really don't know if it possible to turn off this "feature" in VB, but I think it just should be. Is there any ideas left?

I have to say, I don't know why you would want to. You can't compile your code with errors in it, so if they aren't flagged beforehand you don't know there are errors then you have to wait for the compiler to try to build your project to find the errors. I've heard many a C# developer lament the fact that C# doesn't have incremental compilation. This is a great feature and I can't think of any reason you would want to disable it. To each their though.

I work with a very great projest which includes more than 25 VB-projects and about 400000 lines of code. Now you can imagine what happens when I load my solution in VS 2005. Therefore I appreciate perfomance very much in this case. One of the ways to increase performance just a bit is to decrease the background compilation. The mentioned VB-feature is a part of this compilation. And that's why I have started this thread. I would like to disable the feature.

Now I know why you would want to. I guess I've never worked with solutions that big before.
