    <p>I like to keep this option turned off (especially when working with a big project), but it's useful to be able to find the file in the tree now and then. I found a way to do this <a href="http://weblogs.asp.net/kdente/archive/2008/04/30/locating-the-active-item-in-solution-explorer.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>.</p> <p>I hope I'm not being too verbose here, but here's the guide to making this work that I wrote for my work's wiki:</p> <ol> <li>Go to Tools->Macros->Macro Explorer.</li> <li>In the Macro Explorer tree that comes up, right-click MyMacros, and then New Module....</li> <li>Call the new module SyncItem (if you want).</li> <li>Right-click the new module, then Edit.</li> <li>Paste this into the code window. (I don't know or care if the Imports lines are necessary; they're just there by default.) </li> </ol> <p>code:</p> <pre><code>Imports System Imports EnvDTE Imports EnvDTE80 Imports EnvDTE90 Imports System.Diagnostics Public Module SyncItem Sub SyncSolutionExplorer() DTE.ExecuteCommand("View.TrackActivityinSolutionExplorer") DTE.ExecuteCommand("View.TrackActivityinSolutionExplorer") End Sub End Module </code></pre> <p>The macro is most useful if you bind it to a keystroke. Here's how to do that:</p> <ol> <li>Go to Tools->Options, then select Environment->Keyboard.</li> <li>Find the new macro in the list (start typing "syncitem" or similar in the search box).</li> <li>I choose <kbd>Alt</kbd>-<kbd>Shift</kbd>-<kbd>T</kbd> (which this dialog box likes to call <kbd>Shift</kbd>-<kbd>Alt</kbd>-<kbd>T</kbd>) for, um, "Tree," I guess? If you're a fan of <code>Edit.LineTranspose</code>, whatever that is (I think it swaps the current line with the following one), then you might like to pick a different shortcut. </li> </ol>

    1. COThe great thing about this approach is it works even if the project containing the active item is within a closed solution folder. That's why the command has to be executed twice. You don't get that with built-in 'track active item', which only works if the containing project is already open.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
