From time to time my keyboard gets stuck in Visual Studio.NET 2005 BETA 2. Enter, backspace, keyboard cut & paste just stop working in C# editor.
Seems that showing and hiding the solution explorer fixes this problem.
Looks like hidden panels steal focus - pin them, turn off auto-hide.
And if your keyboard gets really stuck, try to press Shift + Alt + Enter few times.
Good luck :-)

ILMerge - merge multiple .NET assemblies into a single assembly
Are you tired of deploying applications with a millions of dll files?
for ex.
Now (well since 16 March 2005) you can merge those files into one single assembly and deploy just one file!
It is freely available for use from this page from "Other Tools & Utilities" section.
Best fo all - its license does allow commercial usage!
Be sure to read the article: "Merging .NET assemblies using ILMerge" from CodeProject . Hope it helps.
for ex.
Something.XML.dll, Something.DAL.dll, SomeControl.Something.dllNow (well since 16 March 2005) you can merge those files into one single assembly and deploy just one file!

Package Load Failure - VS 2005 Beta 2
I am just a fan of custom installs. Every time I install something I choose custom to see what will be installed.
As you can see sometimes it's not a good idea. Since first time I have installed Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 I had problem with test projects. When trying to add a new test project I kept getting this error message:
It seems that Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.TestCaseManagement.QuailtyToolsPackage requires Team Foundation Client feature to work. It was one of that features I decided not to install since I didn't plan to use it.
