1535 now always autocompletes in comments, which is a *real* problem. Didn't see this in the list of "fixes" so I assume this is a new problem. 1534 didn't do it, btw.

Which IDE? Which language?

In VS2005 and C++, I can get autocompletion in a comment if I hit ctrl-space. Even though there are several completion possibilities, it just selects one (the most likely??? I don't know).

Is this what you are seeing, or is it something different?

VS2003, C++. We're talking autocomplete-as-you-type, without hitting control-space or any other mapped key (real fun while typing stuff like "this is for debug" comes out when typing without pausing as "THIS is for DEBUG_NEW"). Comments are all slash-slash C++ style.
I do not have "accept any key that is not part of the symbol" turned on in autocomplete, only tab and return (would like space, tho).

OK. VS 2003 SP1, VAX 1535. This is not happening for me. I have the same completion options selected as you. I wonder if this is project-specific?

Don't know if it's caused by the same underlying bug, but I get this 100% of the time when typing a single-line comment on the same line as a preprocessor directive:

#if SOME_DEFINE // when I type comments here, I will get suggestion lists for every word

this is in a C++ solution, VS.NET 2003 (no SP), VAX 1535.

what could possibly go wrong? :D

The problem with comments on lines with preprocessor directives is a known issue.

case=2338

NOPcode: Is this what you are seeing, too?

No, mine were in both the file comment block one usually puts at the top, and before a function body.
And of course this morning, I'm not seeing it now, even with the same project. Joy. If it happens again I'll try to get screenshots and whatnot.
