Has anyone experienced the problem where you're stepping through the code
(i.e. F10) and your *.cpp is being brought up in the debugger but the
debugger seems to be several lines off and/or running code that is not there?
I finally decide to reinstall VS.Net 2003 after experiencing this problem on
both a Win32 console application and an ATL application. I haven't
determined (I'm still uninstalling) whether or not this is going to fix the
problem or not just thought I'd try and found out if anyone else has had the
same problem. Thanks!

Generally I've only seen this when the source has been changed since the
executable (or DLL) was built. If that's what you're seeing, re-installing
won't change anything.

I was a little too rash in re-installing Visual Studio... It turns out that
the source that was provided to me that I was trying to compile came from a
Unix box. Evidently the Linefeeds are extremely important the VS.Net C++
compiler. The problem showed itself when I opened one of the source files
with Notepad. Ugggh!!! Back to work to make up for the time I've lost.....
