Ahhh ok....in eclipse it was trivial.....but I'd much prefer it to be in
VS.

No, someone needs to rebuild Visual Haskell using 6.8.2, and test it
etc. 
There have been lots of changes in both the GHC API and Cabal, so I
expect 
it will not be a straightforward recompile.  Also building Visual
Haskell 
itself is no mean feat.

We'd love it if someone were able to take this on.  The code for Visual 
Haskell is available at http://darcs.haskell.org/vshaskell.

Also, we need to update it for VS 2008...

Cheers,
