    Why sometimes when i press . or -> the intellisense will pop-up a menu, but other times it does not. Is there a problem with vc++6? I'm definitely sure that particular object has that member function, but intellisense fails to bring the pop-up menu, all options are enabled btw. Anyone experienceing same prob like me?

        also, I find that sometimes it doesn't work in a new class or if you're on a line after you've made a syntax error. In new classes, go the .h file and click anywhere within the class definition and hit . that works for me when intellisense isnt' working or the class isn't showing up in the ClassView window If it's broken, I probably did it bdiamond

          It really pisses me off when intellisense occasionally does not work. I'll try deleting .ncb and see if it works then. :) Thx for the tip
