    Default Code Explorer in MCSP acting strangely......

    Has anyone else who uses MCSP noticed that

    a) Occasionally, if you have the Code Explorer open, all of the folders expand themselves (so you can see every define, constant, variable, label, alias etc.) everytime you type something new? It is very annoying when it happens if you are working on a project that has 2 screens worth of constants/variables/labels. The problem seems to go away if you close, then reopen the Code Explorer.

    b) The 'autocap' feature, which automatically adjusts the capitals if you type the name of a var/con/label that you yourself have already defined sometimes stops working. I love this feature (when it works), since it's like a real-time spell checker for your variables/constants. It seems to act up at a similar time to when the Code Explorer is acting strangely, I assume that the code used to do the 'autocapping' is somehow related to the Code Explorer code that's buggy, and that's what's causing the issue.

    I don't want to make it sound like I'm a bitter MCSP user, in fact I love MCSP. These little annoyances, however, are, well annoying. Has anyone else found these issues? Also, is it possible to make MCSP behave like a normal text editor, in that the cursor will never go past the actual written text written on any line? (I hope that made sense!?)

    I can confirm that.
    I have occasionally seen both the problems on my MCSP as well.
