Hi!

I've found the source of a strange error I've encountered before.
Here is a minimal example

#include <windows.h>
int main()
{
int Test= 1;
Te<complete-word>

return 0;
}

Here you'll get a list of symbols. Now type ; or space and it replaces the "Te" with the selected symbol. But I have this feature turned off!
Accept with any character not valid in a symbol is unchecked, and it works OK most of the time.

I'm using VS2005 and version 1540

Thanks
Brain

If I stop VA from loading and restart the IDE I see exactly the same behaviour on a completion listbox. So VA is simply doing the same thing as the IDE, for consistency.

I'm seeing a completion list. I've turned of suggestion list because they were too inaccurate.

The option is:

VA Options -> Text Editor -> suggestions -> display suggestion list and accept with: Any character not valid in a symbol

this applies to suggestion lists, ones with a question mark icon. Are you seeing a suggestion list, or a completion list, which appears after CTRL-SPACE?
