I'm usign Build 1555 and Visual Studio 6.
When you edit a resource file (.rc) in the text editor of visual studio, a new bug appears (it was present in build 1554 too). Each time you modify the file, after around one second, all the resource keywords (like LANGUAGE, DISCARDABLE, BEGIN, END, VALUE, ...) blink. It's very disturbing.

How do you get the rc file into the text editor in VC6?
I have tried several different things, including dragging the rc file from explorer into the editor in VC6, but it simply refuses to show me the file. |

Feline, you right click on the RC file and choose Open with I believe, then simply choose text editor. |

To open it you have to make a 'find in files' (for exemple, search : "APSTUDIO_READONLY_SYMBOLS" or "LANGUAGE" or "DISCARDABLE") After that, you just have to double-click in the output window line, this will open the file in the text editor. |

A temporary workaround would be to disable VA in rc files by adding .rc to the "Extensions to ignore" list (on the Extensions sub-page under Projects in the VA options dlg). |

I'm recently test this again on the current version (build 1711). It works now. (But I don't now since which build it's fixed) |
