Hello,
I could not reproduce this problem, but it often occurs in my VC6++ IDE.

When the VAView is visible and I am hovering mouse over the source code, the workspace window goes blank..., ClassView/Resource tabs also disappears and becomes unusable.

I have to restart the IDE to get back the tabs.

My Environment is
VA_X.dll file version 10.3.1544.0 built 2007.01.10
MSDev.exe version 6.0.9782.2 (English version)
Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 (Japanese OS)

Can you post a screen shot showing your window layout? Just opening the IDE without opening any workspace should do this very well. I am wondering if VAView is docked with the workspace view, class view, etc. By default it is.

When the IDE is started, the workspace tool window is as follows:
1. with VA installed -> only VAView tab is visible (attached picture)

2. without VA -> there are no tabs, the tool window is blank!!

After I load a project -> ClassView/ResourceView/FileView/(VAView) tabs get visible.

Is this the normal behaviour of the IDE? Should all the tabs be loaded when the IDE is started?

What you are seeing on start up seems correct, this is what I am seeing using VC6 and VA 1544
First loading the IDE with no workspace open:



and now with a workspace open:



If you turn off VA view do the other tabs behave normally once you have opened a workspace?

VA Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ 6.0 -> Enable VA View

If I disable the VAView, the starting layout is as in the picture:



There are no tabs in the workspace toolwindow.(Is this the normal behaviour?)
However, if I load a project, the Classview/FileView etc tabs are shown and they work normally.

This is a screen shot of VC6 on a machine where VA has never been installed:



This does seem to be normal, this is just how VC6 works.
