If I do an svn update while I have Visual Studio open and a number of project files have changed (but not the solution file) I have to wait and click yes on the reload project dialog box every time. Sometimes this can take a while depending on how many projects have changed and how slow my pc is being.
Is there a way to say 'reload all' after the first dialog pops up, like holding down shift to force no to all in the Windows Explorer dialog? (note: I already tried this, it doesn't work)
if you install this plugin from the visual studio gallery:

The button "Reload all" appears.

Deleting my solution_name.v11.suo file (hidden file stored in same location as solution file) seemed to do the trick.
Unfortunately, VS doesn't come with a way to do this. A probable workaround is to touch the solution file before activation VS. It would then reload the whole solution.
There must, however, be ways to do this programmatically, since I remember CMake solutions asking me whether I wanted to reload the whole solution after individual projects were re-generated. CMake is Open Source, so if you're really desperate, you might want to look into it.
Use a tool like VisualSVN to automate the process for you. It allows you to perform the update within Visual Studio, then automatically reloads the projects that have been modified.
I got my project to bind in my solution by closing the solution (File -> Close Solution) then reopening it.
If your project is hosted on a TFS, then delete the solution file and get latest. VS will prompt you to Reload all projects. Press Reload All.
