Hi

A funny in VB , I am not sure if its 1709 related as I only just saw it

I wanted to split a text string across lines

"ABC " & _
"XYZ"


The Database I am using has lots of _ split names eg RPE_SP

As I try to add the & _, I am offered something like RPE_SP which is actually a class , I can just enter the _ . So I had to accept the "offer" and edit it back to the _ I wanted

Bit irritating

Mike

Which IDE are you using?

I have tried a quick test in VS2005 with VA 1709 and I am not seeing any sign of this happening. Can you try turning on:

VA Options -> Advanced -> Display -> use tomato icons in listboxes and tooltips to mark Visual Assist X content

are you seeing tomato icons when this happens? You should be if this is coming from VA.

Do you see this problem when using an underscore to split other types of lines? I am wondering if the content of the string somehow has something to do with this.
