I type in:

#include "

Okay, what was the name of that file I wrote a few years ago? "MySystemInfo.h"? "SysInfo.h"? "InfoSystem.h"? And what folder is it in?

Wouldn't it be nice if I could hit "CTRL-ATL-SHIFT-SmileyFace" and pop a common dialog to browse for the file, instead of having to open an instance of Windows Explorer and hunt for it, then copy the full path back to the IDE?

I would like to have a simple dialog which asks for the symbol that I am looking for (like the SIW dialog) and presents a list of all found includes which contain this symbol. Selecting a file from this list inserts it into the #include... Of course properly either as "filename.h" or <filename.h>

Just dreaming...

Not exactly, something much simpler. At this point, VAX knows already WHERE to put it. It also knows all the symbols, so its just a SIW dialog which shows symbols NOT in the workspace and the related include files.

Eclipse does something like this. You just select the line (which is underlined as the symbol can't be found) and press clrl+m and the #include in automaticly added. This would be something I'd like to see in visual assist.

Cheers.
