For some reason my "Generate Local Resource" disappeared from the Tools menu in Visual Studio 2008. To correct this follow these steps:
- Go to Tools > Customise > Commands Tab
- Select the Tools Category on the left
- Rearrange Commands > Select the "Add..." button
- Select the "Tools" option on the left (in Categories list box)
- Under commands select "Generate Local Resource"
- Select the Ok button then close the remaining windows.
After adding the command back to the tools menu, it appeared Greyed out. If you open an ASPX page and select Designer Mode, it will become active!

Whilst trying to install Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 for Vista I received the following message:
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer..."
What I didn't realise was that I must install Visual Studio 2005 SP1 first!
