Hi!
I've found something in VA, and this 'bug'(?) works with almost all versions of VA and under visual studio 2003 .NET.
I don't know how to describe it simply but I'll try :)
When I open project and open two windows with source files, and
when I mark text in the first window with mouse or keyboard (it is important that all selected lines should begin with SPACES) and I will do the same thing in second window and now when I try to comment whole line by pressing '/' marked text from one window overwrite the text in the second window. Try pressing '/' and switch window few times.
I'm not sure if it is a bug
best regards
fenix. |

Definitely a bug. Can you please try upgrading to VA 1553 to see if this makes any difference:

If this does not help, do you have the IDE option "Show Miscellaneous files in Solution Explorer" in "Tools|Options|Environment|Documents" turned on? If so can you try turning this off and restarting the IDE and see if this helps? |

| In my IDE this option is turned OFF. Also, I had installed this version but this bug still remains. |

Have you turned on:
IDE tools menu -> Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Line numbers
We have had a few other reports of this, but you seem to be seeing it under slightly different circumstances.
Would you be able to post a screen shot of your IDE, so we can see the layout? This might be a factor. |

I've enabled 'Line numbers', I can turn it off but bug is still there.
Here you have screenshoot of main window of VS IDE with two windows opened, also I put screen shoots of some options from IDE, maybe these
screens would help you.

| Are you switching between the two source windows by clicking on the tabs at the top of the window, using the Window menu, using ctrl+tab or some other method? |

Mainly I switch between windows using CTRL+TAB, sometimes by clicking on them and sometimes by CTRL+W and ALT+SHIFT+O.
This happens only when I switch by clicking on the window or by pressing CTRL+TAB

Just to add another symptom I've seen on this.
I used the Find In Files command looking for [^/]TRACE
Once I had my Find Results I would double click on a line and then shift down arrow to highlight the line and press / to comment out the line.
I had 104 matches in 22 files. One of the files (it wasn't the last one I double clicked) snipped like 20 lines of code after the comment.
I did a ctrl-z and the lines came back and the line I commented out stayed that way.
This was the first time I've seen this and now when I try I can't reproduce it.

I came across a very similar effect when trying to reproduce case=5835
For me the trigger was different, and seemed to be tightly tied to the problem where characters were sent to the wrong file. I am hoping that when the bug is found and fixed this second effect will also be fixed. |

pressing / removes text from another window
