MSDN Library for Visual Studios

[Conrad11]

Hi there,

Do you normally download these?

Is there anything that I can't get online anyways if I don't download MSDN Library or are they for people who use Visual Studios offline?

Do they include things like extra snippets and help documents?

Thanks.

I normally rely on the "offline" library from within Visual Studio as it's quicker for "F1" help given the speed of the Internet access where I do most of my development work. The "online" version does contain more articles, reflects the latest content updates and includes "community" submissions (somewhat sparingly). You can also configure Visual Studio to search both offline and online repositories.

I always have the latest MSDN library installed but still find myself going to the internet most of the time for some reason!
