Ok now my intellisense has gone t's-up again - I also cannot use undo/redo
in the editor. I deleted the NCB file in case that was corrupt but no
poonanas, its still fubar (how many explitives can I use without actually
swearing!?).

My next "solution" is to reinstall Visual Studio 2003 ;)

I'm not asking for a solution here, just sharing my frustration with the
group (unless you have one that is....).

Robin, All the confort I can provide is that I have gone through the
same process, without knowing what to do. I installed, repaired, added and
remove
options , etc VS 2003 several times.
I made me thinks how much dependent are we with intellisense

Hope your pain will not last long

Ahhh, so reinstalling VS2003 didn't fix the problem?

I answered my own question. Reinstalling the whole thing (even the
prerequisites) makes no difference. Therefore, something about my project
and/or code is making it screw up. Intellisense I guess I can live without,
undo/redo I will have to get used to living without.

So far I have:

recreated my project in a new solution
deleted ncb files
remove and then installed visual studio 2003

and so far this makes no difference whatsoever.

Sucks ;)

Actually thinking a bit more about your reply, we are dependent on
intellisense - it is such a productivity tool (some "religious" zealots here
at work don't like it!).

Not sure when this was last posted, but I've now hit the same wall. What a disgusting bug! My project is collossal, and having to remember enums, namespaces, and the like is really painful. It isn't even completely a problem of being dependent on intellisense. In C++ projects, we know intellisense is limited, and take this to heart. But in .Net, I've come to organize my project in a more hierarchical fashion, which requires namespaces in namespaces at times. I took it for granted when intellisense was working. Also, even the basics fail to work, such as auto-indenting. Even the worlds most basic editors handle this, with the exception of notepad. Code completion is entirely MIA. So much typing!

I wonder if MS has cared to address this bug at all. I find it difficult to believe that this critical bug has gone un-noticed. Anyone know if VS 2k did this? I'm using 2003.

I had the same problem and found the following Knowledge Base Article: 839293 BUG: IntelliSense feature stops functioning when you switch from Designer view to Code view.

Removing the blank lines from the licenses.licx file solved the problem.

Hope it works for you, too!

I've had the same problem and some success at correcting it. The problem first started just after an error message occured during a project save... it said something about an error in one of my forms... frmMain for arguement sake. I didn't really understand the error but continued. Ever since, I've had the same problems you describe especially with the frmMain code. But just with this project so it's definately project related.

Today, after making a backup of the project, I deleted the .resx file associated with the frmMain then rebuilt the project to recreate the .resx file. Voila... intellisense and undo started working again.

So I think the problem is a corrupted .resx file. Try deleting a couple and rebuilding. Hope it helps.
