Using: Visual Studio.NET 2003
Steps to reproduce: I don't know if it matters, but use code that creates a window. Edit the code, then run your project in the Debugger. Interact with your project's window, then exit your app. When VS ends debug mode, select a piece of code in your project by double-clicking it. Start typing to replace the selected code. You'll notice that after the first character is typed, the caret jumps to a random location (usually higher) on the page. Sometimes it will insert random characters in other open files in the project.

i have never seen this, and i often edit my code while the program is running.
are you using C++? if so is this MFC window code? i don't use MFC, but i don't see why this would be relevant off hand.
does this only happen in one project? do you have more than one set of window code where you can try this? i have seen reports of this sort of problem before, but so far i have never been able to recreate the problem on demand. |

This sort of error has been reported for several months but is still very common. It happens to me at least once a day. But I haven't particularly associated it with editing while debugging, myself. It seems to me to be most common when you have to check out the file from source control; or when you overtpe a selection, or do a surround selection. |

I get this alot as well. If it's the same problem I'm getting, the cursor isn't moving to a random location - it's moving to the position of the cursor from the previously active file (naturally both files must be open at the same time). This happens when I activate a file [by clicking the tab for that file] and start typing without first doing some action that resets the VA X context location for the newly active file (i.e. something that would also cause the context drop-down to update itself with the current location of the cursor). |
what could possibly go wrong? :D |

Do the problems occur only in certain files, or only in files with something in common?
We suspect performance of VA X might be an issue. |

I have never noticed anything particular about the files in which this occurs. |
