Very Slow Visual Studio 6.0 IDE

I'm working on a large project with >100 .CPP and .H files and editing is very slow.

I figured out, that it could be the wizbar context tracking.
Does someone know how to disable the context tracking in the IDE?

Thanks in advance,
Martin Horst

One possibility for the slowness is your .NCB file. It just keeps growing and growing and ...

Close your project, delete the file, and see if that helps.

Cheers!

Go to menu Tools->Options. Select the
Editor page and uncheck boxes in the
"Statement Completion Options" section
at the bottom.
