I'm just doing some refactoring using VC6/1715. A lot of small changes at a lot of places. I use Find References for specific symbols but I also need to modify lines around it. At first I modify the symbol manually, then I want to navigate a line below. But after editing the symbol the suggestions list box shows up. So I can't use the cursor keys to navigate within the code. This is ok because I can press the escape key to close the suggestion list box. But at the same time also the Find References window closes. And this drives me mad. Is there a way to close the suggestion list box without closing the Find References window? Or can you make the escape key not affecting several things at the same time?

Regards
Marcus

Thank you, accord. I'll try to clone the results. This sounds like a sensible workaround.

We have put in a bug report:

case=25094

For now, you can use the "Clone Results" command as a workaround to create a new Find Results popup window that is not affected by the escape key:

Right click on the window -> Clone Results to New Window
or click on the 5th icon.

Unfortunately, VA X is limited in what it can do inside VC 6.0. We don't have any way to create a tabbed window so we hijack the Output window which closes if you press ESC. But I've asked the developers about it.
