    Great way to understand circular references

    I'm dealing with large assemblies that I get from all over the place,
    and I need to do changes.

    I have been introduced to a tool called SolidMap and they have a
    feature that allows highlighting the circular reference.
    It saves me so much time trying to figure them out my self.

    If you're going to sell something, why don't you just come out and say
    you've got something for sale? Why try to pose as a real user? Your
    product sux anyway. Why don't you point us to a decent review of the
    software?

    I've been waiting to see a full review of the software before I invest
    time into evaluating it.

    I wrote a macro to do this and it was free.

  5. So, would you mind posting it or making it available? I, for one, would be
    very interested.

    I downloaded the trial version of Solidmap. I've had only had time to try it
    out on one assembly (fairly large for us) where we suspect that we have some
    circular references. It says we don't, but it seems like it isn't finding
    all of the references. I haven't had time to work with it to see what is
    happening.

    I agree with Matt's mini-review, that the user interface is not very easy to
    understand. It is nice to have all of the references laid out graphically
    instead of just a hard to read list, but that is not worth the selling price
    to me. If it really does find circular references, I would be willing to put
    up with a painful user interface and a steep price.
