I don't know why it occurs, and I have sometimes found that with a lot of classes, it doesn't always load the information on all of the classes. What you can do is close VC++, delete the .CLW file and then restart VC++ - it will rebuild its information from the files. That should cure it.

This mainly happens because the .clw file may be Read only. So make the file not read only and try loading the work space again. Some times U need to close VC and open it again bacause VC stores information about the latest work spaces. Hope this solves u'r problem

generally the error message regarding not being able to view class view information is because you have the same workspace open in two different VC sessions (or maybe one died cruelly and didnt clean up).

Note:
The .clw file is the Class Wizard information.
The .ncb file stores the Class View information. (and possible some other stuff)
The .opt file stores workspace settings
