Yes I use DataBinding all the time in Winform projects and that is always the best method when available or appropriate, however when working at a business object layer or funnelling data into and out of a database into a business object below the UI layer or working with a custom business object that doesn't fit into the asp.net Microsoft DataSource controls it's still necessary to assign back and forth like this.
-- modified at 20:06 Wednesday 20th September, 2006
I *do* know that there is an objectdatasource for asp.net however it requires modification of existing objects or that they be written for it from the start and I'm working with an existing business object library I wrote that is in use with databinding in a winform application that is released.

This is useful, for example, when you have to assign the values to a set of controls:
TextBoxFirstName.Text = firstName TextBoxLastName.Text = lastName TextBoxEMail.Text = eMail and in another part of your code you have to do the opposite assignment:
firstName = TextBoxFirstName.Text lastName = TextBoxLastName.Text eMail = TextBoxEMail.Text In this case the second block of code could be generated copying and pasting the first block, selecting the pasted block and applying this feature. MZ-Tools offers the following ways to switch the sides of an assignment: MZ-Tools | Other Utilities | Switch Assignment menu. Switch Assignment menu entry on the context menu of a code window. Switch Assignment button on the MZ-Tools - Other Utilities toolbar. Visual Studio 2015 and higher, the keyboard shortcut associated with the MZTools.SwitchAssignment command.

Swap text blocks in Visual StudioIs there any built-in way to swap two arbitrary text blocks in Visual Studio ? (I happen to be using VS2015). Example: you have a method such as FooBar(target, source) and you decide it would make more sense to be FooBar(source, target) . If you've called FooBar in a lot of places you might need to run multiple operations to swap the various pairs of variable names. Having this done also within comments could also be useful. While obviously you could do this with multiple search & replaces, or multiple Edit->Refactor->Renames (^R^R), those approaches are somewhat prone to error, and are more tedious. If this doesn't actually exist within Visual Studio but another tool like Notepad++ (for instance) has this capability, that is almost as good. These questions are similar but for more specific scenarios: Does anyone know a visual studio keyboard short cut to swap around two sides of a statement?

- 1 ReSharper will do this for you, if you have that, that is, it will allow you to change the signature of a method, changing the positions of the parameters and updating all calls to the method to adjust. – Lasse V. Karlsen Commented Jan 19, 2018 at 13:09
- @user202729 it could be many more than that. You'd have to rename the parameters, and then also any arguments in any context where the method is called. It adds up. This seems like a perfect task for a computer to do :) – StayOnTarget Commented Jan 19, 2018 at 13:17
- Visual Studio can reorder parameters by default. Edit > Refactor > Reorder Parameters... will change the order automatically in all places which call the function. – HaveSpacesuit Commented Jan 19, 2018 at 19:51
- @HaveSpacesuit that's maybe not a "perfect" solution but it covers a lot of the cases I was thinking of. You should add that as an answer... – StayOnTarget Commented Jan 19, 2018 at 21:05
Visual Studio has the built in functionality to reorder parameters. You can select this by using Edit > Refactor > Reorder Parameters... . Changing parameters in this form will update all the method calls in addition to the method. You can also request to preview all the changes which will be made. More information here.

Migrate subscriptions from one agreement to anotherIf you have Visual Studio subscriptions assigned as part of one agreement and your company purchases a new agreement, you might need to migrate subscribers from the current agreement to the new one. This article explains how to move your assigned subscriptions to the new agreement. When you move your subscribers to the new agreement, here's what happens: - They get a new subscription GUID.
- Their benefits are reset. For example, if they already used a training benefit, they receive a new instance of that benefit.
- If they used Azure individual credits in their old subscription, they need to activate a new subscription and transfer their Azure assets to it.
The process for moving subscribers to the new agreement consists of three steps: - Export your current subscription assignments from the old agreement.
- Prepare a subscription list for upload to the new agreement.
- Upload your subscription list to the new agreement.
Note the following considerations before you start this process: - If your reseller selected the option to automatically transfer the subscribers to the new agreement when it was purchased, you might not see the changes until 48-72 hours after the agreement was submitted. Before you proceed with the process to manually move your subscribers, check with your reseller.
- You can use Microsoft Entra groups to simplify the process of moving subscribers to the new agreement.
Export your current subscription assignmentsThe first step to migrate your assigned subscriptions from one agreement to another is to export your current subscription assignments as a CSV file. In the Visual Studio Subscriptions admin portal, you can export a list of your subscribers and details about their assignments. This information includes: - Subscriber name
- Email address
- Notification email address
- Subscription level
- Assigned date
- Expiration date
- Reference field
- Whether downloads are enabled
- Country/region
- Subscription status
- Subscription GUID
The list is exported as a CSV file that you can easily open in Microsoft Excel so you can prepare it for uploading to the new agreement. To export your assigned subscriptions: Sign in to the admin portal . Select the Export tab. A CSV file downloads to your computer. The name of the file reflects the name and type of your current agreement and the date the file was created.  Prepare your subscription list for upload to the new agreementTake these steps to open your exported subscriptions list and move the relevant data to a template for upload to the new agreement: Locate and open the file that was created when you exported your subscriptions list. You should see the following column names and their associated data: - Subscriber Name
- Notification Email Address
- Microsoft Entra group
- Subscription Level
- Expiration Date (UTC)
- Subscription Status
- Usage Status
Not all the fields in the exported CSV file are needed in the file used to upload your subscriptions to the new agreement. The fields appearing in bold in the previous list appear in the template used to upload your list. Download the Excel template that you use to upload your subscriptions. On the Manage Subscribers tab, select your new agreement in the dropdown list:  Select Add and then select Bulk add . The Upload multiple subscribers dialog appears. Under step 2, select the Download link to download the template.  The template appears in your Downloads folder. Open the template. Open both the exported subscriber list and the empty bulk add template. Manually copy your subscription data from the exported list and paste it into the template. The order of the columns in the exported subscriber list is different from the order in the template. The names of the columns also differ slightly. The following table shows the names of the fields that are common to both spreadsheets: | Export list | Bulk add template | | Subscriber Name | Name | | Email | Sign-in Email | | Notification Email Address | Notification Email | | Subscription Level | Subscription Level | | Reference | Reference | | Downloads | Downloads | | Country | Country | | Language | Language | Do not copy data from the Subscription GUID column into the bulk add template. Leave that column blank in the Bulk add template. Adding the GUIDs will cause the upload to fail. If you have a lot of subscribers, you might find it helpful to use keyboard shortcuts when you're copying and pasting data. To select all the entries in a column like "Subscriber Name", select the first entry in the column (not the column heading), select and hold Ctrl+Shift , and then select the Down arrow key. This will select all the data in that column. When all your data is moved to the bulk add template, save the template and close it. This list is the subscription list that you upload to your new agreement. Upload your subscription list to the new agreement - The name of your subscription list appears in the Upload multiple subscribers dialog. Select OK to upload the file. In the admin portal, you might briefly see a status message stating that a file is being uploaded. When the upload is complete, you see the message Subscribers updated successfully . The migration of your subscribers from your old agreement to your new one is complete.
After you add your subscribers to your new agreement, you should remove them from your old agreement. Removing them will prevent them from getting notifications about their old subscriptions.

That can be done by calling swap(*this, other); and implementing a specialization of swap, by directly calling swap on each of the individual members, or by letting std::swap call your move assignment operator.
