I list my BOs in the "DataSource" pane for field referencing. But I keep loosing BOs in the datasource and I have to go back and add them again. I can't find any pattern as what I do, that the IDE looses the BO.



Has anyone run into this and has any solution?



Thanks!

Ben, Thank you very much for explaning both points. Although I usually don't put my palm on my face (and that's why I didn't get the comment), I tend to kick the computer...



As far as the BO on the DataSource Pane goes, I do have BBS for all the BOs and I use the wizard to add them and they stay on for a while and then they disappear.



I "think" I've found the reason. I had set my VS to reload the last project at startup and seems like I ran into serveral problems, i.e, any SF that used Themes, would not show the Theme again in IDE unless I had to go to SF References and reset the Theme again. I now changed the Startup to nothing and I manually load the project and things look normal now, including the BOs in DataSource Pane!



I always welcome your great inputs!

That's good to know about the auto-loading of a project... my guess would be that some of the DTE events (Design-Time Extensibility, the managed interface we tie into in order to communicate with Visual Studio) are not firing or are more likely not being attached to before the project is loaded.  I'm not sure there's a way around that... I think the project might get loaded before our add-in if you've got it set to auto-load.
