My "as you type" help has disappeared!

Hello,

I don't know the correct term for it (tooltip?), but it's the nice feature
that, when you are writing source code, pops up a little explanation of the
syntax of the particular class/function you are typing so you can choose
from a list of overloads, etc. Anyway, for some reason it no longer works
on my system. Is there some VS2003 setting/preference/option that might
have gotten changed that turned it off?

Thanks,
Ray Mitchell

I think you are referring to Intellisense.

Fix any bugs, recompile all projects, and then stop and restart visual
studio.

I've lost it while changing the interface of a windows class library
project that I have temporarily included in my windows application
project (especially if the windows class library is being used by a
control in the toolbox -- if this is your case, be sure to recompile
the control that uses the library as well...and then restart visual
studio).
