What I have to do to make the include completion appear? It works ONLY when I type the #include too. Just pressing Ctrl+Space inside a #include "" or <> does not work.

Sometimes VAX is kind enough to at least suggest a class name inside the quotes when I start typing the filename.

using a cpp file in VS .NET 2003 and VAX 1240 i typed
#in|

at this point i get a nice little suggestion box, and i select and accept #include <$>
having done this, the include file pick list is displayed. pressing escape to get rid of this i typed q, giving me:
#include <q|>

and then i pressed ctrl_space.

all right, everything worked fine 3 times in a row. now that i am typing this post up and double checking my facts i am getting a completion listbox

i take a screen shot of this, return to VS, hit ctrl_space again and i now get the include file list once more.

Uniwares, how does your typing compare to mine? i can get this to go wrong, but not under normal typing conditions.

zen is the art of being at one with the two'ness

Define normal typing conditions :)
One example where it practically always fails, copy a line with a include and change the filename. Well, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V is still faster than typing #in+Enter when you modify existing code.
Or when you need to change filenames, because the includes have changed.

But I have seen that also during the way you describe typing, there is no suggestion or completion coming up, no matter what I try. Just leaving the file and returning to it, often lets me open the completion list with Ctrl+Space or at least comes with a suggestion list containing class names. Since in the current project classes and filename are ident, its ok.
