How can I open files in one instance using Visual Studio?

I edit files directly from FTP and love using Visual Studio, however VS seems to open each file in a new VS instance instead of a new tab. I believe this is because it is a file without a solution / project.

How do I get VS to open multiple separate files inside a single multi-line window?

Perhaps you should look into this command line option: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/aa991989(v=vs.100).aspx

I had the same problem. This worked for me:

In Filezilla, go to Edit> Preferences> Edit File, on the Use Custom Editor button, enter the following: NB: the space between the label and the forward slash is important "/ edit

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /edit

      



or

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /edit
