Would it be possible for VAX when underlining error, to provide a tooltip of what the error is? I think the newer IDEs do something like this already, but older ones do not.

Visual Assist doesn't do deep syntax checking, just verifies whether the variable is defined or not. One way we may be able to do this is to compile the file frequently as you type, and we already have a feature request with a similar idea:

case= 18600

However, as you may already suppose, it may be a little bit "overkill."
In addition, VS2010 and VS11 already does this without such a "brute force".
So don't hold your breath, we may decide against this feature.
