Cant save BIML file in Visual Studio

I have just started trying to use BIML to generate my SSIS packages. Im currently using VIsual studio 2015 to do everything.
When I add a new BIML file to the project it appears in the Solution explore and I can open the file and edit it. But when I save and close and reopen none of the changes where saved. Is there a setting that i need to change in Visual Studio? Currently I have to edit this file through the use of Notepad++ or something similar.
Visual Studio ScreenShot
As a work around to this issue, you could right click on the file you wish to edit and choose XML (Text) Editor.
Sadly you'll loose intellisence for the C# code
If you open a file twice, once in the BIML editor and once in the XML editor then you can view side by side making your changes in XML but viewing nice formatting in BIML...

wanna have a designer for a REPX file - VS13/DevExpress

I want to open a repx file with a designer.
(but now, I only see the code behind)
I have installed Visual Studio 2013 and DevExpress.
I just want to add 3 paramters to a printer lable.
The existing file was made with XtraReport - maybe that helps.
Thx.
First, open or create a blank XtraReport file in design mode in Visual Studio. Then, click on the Tasks tag on the upper-left corner of the report design surface. From the pop-up menu, click on "Open/Import" and select a .repx file.

How to enable open XML Package Editor power tool for Visual Studio

I want to create customized ribbon on my excel sheet. I saw some of the tutorial (e.g, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hn3Qkp4Jw34) where they used Open XML package editor power tool for visual studio 2010 and worked on some xml configuration file to add ribbon. Hence I downloaded the tool and installed it. But when I drag and drop the excel file to the VS-2010, the file instead of opening in the VS editor it is opening in its new excel window. I tried to do same thing for a word file but still it is opening in new word window instead of opening in VS editor. Anybody could you please help me regarding this. I was using Visual Studio 2012 but then I came to know that Open XML package editor power tool for visual studio 2010 won't work for VS-2012 hence Installed VS-2010 but still getting same problem.
Thank you
Anup, Have you tried going to File->Open from Visual Studio?
If that opens it from an Office client application as well, then the Visual Studio Package Editor is not the default option for opening documents of that file extension.
If the document is a part of a solution (you can just create a new blank solution and add it in) you can right click on the file from Solution Explorer and choose "Open With", from there you can choose to open that file as a "Package File", and you can also select this as the default way to "open" files of that extension in Visual Studio.
I work for Microsoft and have just updated this plugin to work with VS2012 and 2013. Drag and drop should work in all the VS versions (I just tested it) but perhaps it's worth trying downloading the updated extension from the Gallery and seeing if it works for you in the newer VS version.

How can I update the outdated Team Foundation Server file status icon in Visual Studio 2010?

In visual studio 2010, under solution explorer the source control icons by the files denote that the file is currently checked out. However if I look at the file in the source control explorer it appears not to be checked out. I have tried the "refresh" button in solution explorer as well as "get latest version...". Neither update the status icon by the file. Thanks in advance.
Try the 'Refresh Status' command available on the File > Source Control menu. This command is also available on the 'Source Control - Team Foundation' toolbar if you have it showing.
Is it possible that the file is checked out under another workspace? If the Source Control Explorer (SCE), look in the "User" column for one of the files that appear checked out. Does a user name (with a workspace name in parenthese) appear? If so, then that user has the file checked out within the workspace listed.
In Visual Studio 2008 there was an issue with shelvesets: http://blogs.infosupport.com/blogs/marcelv/archive/2007/12/03/Team-Foundation-Server-2008-shows-incorrect-version-control-status-in-team-explorer-.aspx
Could this be the case for you too?
