using VAX 1219 and VS .NET 2003
in one of my C++ source files, i highlighted the lines:
long CLogListViewItem::GetCount() const
{
return m_pLogRecord->GetCount();
}
where the last line of code is the last line in the file. if i now press the / key to comment out this code, the cursor is placed at the begining of the first hightlighted line, but no /'s are inserted.
if i only select the first 3 lines of code, so that the last line in the file isnt hightlighted then / works.
there is code above this block.
even worse, if i highlight the first 3 lines in the file:
#ifndef FILE_LIST_VIEW_ITEM_H
#define FILE_LIST_VIEW_ITEM_H
where the first line is blank, and the use / to highlight this selection then these lines are left alone and the next 6 lines lines in the file are hightlighted and then commented out  |

i was switching between a .cpp and its .h while experimenting with this via alt_o
i have just found that i have my entire .h pasted in at the bottom of the .cpp file, all commented out.
i am 99.9% certain this wasn't there when i started, which suggests that VAX inserted the .h body into the .cpp |

| There are a couple of bugs along these lines. I think both your bugs are covered in thread 1424, but thread 920 may also be related. |

thanks, that sounds the same 
i have just tried to reproduce the code from the .h turning up in the .cpp, but it isnt happening on demand. very strange. |

We can reproduce the problem with commenting of the last line in a file. Albeit low priority, it is on our list to fix.
Send more clues if a header appears at the bottom of your cpp. |

| thats fair i would agree that this isnt normally going to be a problem. i will keep an eye out for the header into cpp problem. |

Just remember that the C Standard (and the C++ Standard, IIRC) REQUIRE the last line of a file to be blank. Not that most compilers follow this requirement...
