Anyone know a good way to find out where i have an extra #region or #endregion in my code? I have about 5000 lines of c# code and i'm trying to do it manually right now. Any help is appreciated.

@toosweetnightmare Tejs is correct; the fact that you have a mismatched region is a sign of a larger problem. After you find your issue, I recommend doing what you can to keep each class as small as possible. – George Stocker Jun 02 '11 at 20:31

2Partial classes are great for this, or separate classes ;-) – CodeNaked Jun 02 '11 at 20:33

1I have it broken into classes and i like to break the code in the classes up into little regions with titles to manage it. It might not be best practice but i'm not a software engineer and it works for me. – toosweetnitemare Jun 02 '11 at 20:35

1It sounds kind of like it's not working actually. I think the idea is that your class is too big. – recursive Jun 02 '11 at 20:39

I think ill just take Tejs advice and remove all of my #region and #endregion – toosweetnitemare Jun 02 '11 at 20:44

Do CTRL+M CTRL+L - to close up all the regions. Then expand them one at a time on the left (little + sign) until you see #region XXX that doesnt have matching #endregion
Should look like this:

Thanks SwDevMan81. i did this already. I might just do a replace on all my #regions with a // and replace my #endregion with // too just to remove the issue. – toosweetnitemare Jun 02 '11 at 20:36

That worked. Ended up being a stupid typo actually. Thank you very much! – toosweetnitemare Jun 02 '11 at 20:51

Just had this issue myself,
easiest way for me to find out where I had deleted an endregion was to do a compare with the last file in source control.
the line was then highlighted and easy to find.

an excellent suggestion. I unfortunately did not have a previous copy to use for source control but i can see how this would have been a very useful. Thank you for adding to my question! – toosweetnitemare Sep 27 '12 at 15:16

Click Ctrl+M, M it will collapse all properly matching regions. The one that doesn't match will not be collapsed so you can fix it.

Doing this closed everything except for a lone #endregion i had to put at the end to remove the error – toosweetnitemare Jun 02 '11 at 20:39

What happens when you use the shortcuts to collapse all?
CTRL+M CTRL+O - Collapse all regions not recursively
It should collapse all but the region that has the mismatch.
