VS2002 SP1, WinXP SP3, VC++ project. Happens intermittently (no set occurences).
Problem: Sometimes if I open a created project containing a "void main()" line, I see that "void" is red-underlined. Also happens if I type "const", but not with "return", "class", "int". Once this happened just after I change an #include line to point to an inexistent header name.
This problem _always_ coexists with a VAIntellisense problem: if I type "const", I only get a CONST (not "const") option in the list, for int I only get INT, for void VOID etc. |

After you fix the invalid #include line does this problem go away?
Is this a file specific problem?
Does restarting the IDE help?
These are keywords, VA should not forget about them, or underline them as mistyped symbols. Very strange. |

After fixing the #include it does not go away (and I only _think_ that was the cause).
File specific problem? what does it mean?
Restarting the IDE, (re)building the solution, cleaning, saving, running- none help. |

A file specific problem, some problems only show up in specific files. If you open a different code file in your solution VA will behave normally.
When this happens it is normally because something in the "problem" files is confusing our parser, so we just need to find out what is different about the files that show the problem.
Have you any idea what fixes this problem?
Do you work on several different solutions? I am wondering if this problem might effect some solutions, but not other solutions.
I am looking for any form of clue that might help to explain what is going on here, since clearly this is very unhelpful. |

No, working in a different file in the same solution presents the same problem.
Far as I know, it could (and did) happen to a wide range of solutions (from Hello World's to full games)- but sometimes it happens, sometimes not.

Can you please try installing VA 1715. I really don't know if this will help, but using the latest version will make it easier to try and find the cause of the problem:
