Wow! I just got one word in three different colors!
Something like this:

typedef enum schedule {
    sch100
};

switch (sch) {
                 Upper half of 100
Upper half of schvvv
              vvv V
         case sch100:
              ^^^^^^
          lower half of the whole thing
}


Sometimes it's like this, sometimes it's fine. Scrolling the window will sometimes fix it, sometimes make it color incorrectly.

The upper/lower half of class names are also sometimes different colors when defining a function like:
MyClass::MyFunc() {}

Using build 1218

What IDE do you use?

What font and size for text? Does the problem occur with other fonts? Try Courier New.

Anything unusual about your language settings?

I get the same thing. Using Courier New, English language, with .NET 2003 on XP Prof with VAX build 1218.

Mine happens when I have more than one instance of the IDE open.
Setup:
1) Opened up the dev with some project. Things look great.

2) Open up another dev with a different project and the coloring will start to screw up in the second dev. Opening up files, will have proper coloring, initially, but switching between opened files(.cpp) and scrolling up or down will cause the coloring to mess up, it might take a minute or 2. I have, sometimes, a mult-colored letter. The top part would be slightly black while the bottom part would be blue.

I can reproduce this everytime. It will always happen this way. It may take a minute or 2 but it will always happen.

What's wierd is that my first dev instance will start to screw up too. If I close the second dev the first dev will come back to normal. Wierd, very wierd.

There are times that only 1 dev instance produces this but I can't seem to reproduce it. Sorry.

Hope this helps. I'm not doing anything fancy or anything.

Highlighting(by double-clicking) a word seems to correct the coloring on the entire page.

VS .NET 2003, Courier New 10 pt, English (US). I haven't changed any of those settings from the default. Like Yuri, I often have multiple instances of the IDE open.
