I came across an O'Reilly Book by James Avery called "Visual Studio Hacks." (The word "Hacks" in the title is misleading.) It has over 400 pages of ideas on ways to improve your usage of VS. I like the book and even picked up a few things new to me. Here's one of them.
There are times when you want to copy a portion of several lines of code, but NOT the whole of ANY line(s) of code. In the early days of computers, some programs allowed Block selection of characters, which is like superimposing a rectangle on the screen highlighting (selecting) anywhere on the screen. In VS, if you press "Alt" you can click and drag a rectangle ANYWHERE in the current file, allowing you to, say, strip off the first 10 characters from every line. When pasting, no new lines are inserted, so make sure there is room for the lines you are copying. Try it a couple time to see how it works.
Also, if you just press "Ctrl" - C with nothing highlighted, what happens? VS 2005 ASSUMES that you want to copy the current line. Move the cursor to a new line and paste as usual. "Ctrl" - X cuts the current line if nothing is highlighted. Again, paste as usual.
I'll post one or two other ideas that I got from the book next time.
