*grrrr* thank you for the sample code AndyM. after much arguing with VS2005 it turns out that this simply will not compile at all if the code is on a network drive. as soon as I copy the project to the local hard drive everything is fine. it would not be so bad, but the compilation errors don't give any hint of this.

have you tried this code yourself? using VS2005, a new managed C++ console project, and VA 1445 i am getting a completion listbox every time. pressing CTRL-SPACE makes it appear instantly, although it is not appearing spontaneously.
