Vern,
Not daily, but maybe weekly and/or bi-weekly, and very intermediately.
Last time, I called over my co-workers, just to make sure I was NOT going
CRAZY...
They saw that I could not type, hit delete, and that my cursor
disappeared. Then I clicked on many different views, and then it finally
got the "signal" to work again. The CPU at 10%, and resources were
available. As confirmed by Dot-Netter co-workers, who have reliable Visual
Studio.
Anyway, restarting always at least temporary fixes keyboard errors, or
clicking on at least 3-different views... <Perplexing>

I don't know what you are doing that raises these issues. I don't have to
restart RDi ever, yet you report it's a daily issue.
Admittedly, I don't do any debugging in RDi - perhaps that will change now
that we'll have a 5250 emulation IN RDi.
I have also been a user of the M$ IDEs and find them to be most excellent.
Some of the new indentation support is bringing us closer to how it is when
editing VB, I think.
Now one of the challenges is, the editor still needs to support the 8-80
style of source data, with the mixed free and fixed stuff, too.
I do get surprised by some of the repaint issues and repositioning that
seems odd. But it's not been enough to warrant, for me, raising too many
alarms - although I might eventually!
Cheers
Vern

Microsoft Visual Studio, Microsoft Word, NotePad++, just to name a few

Vern, I'm all for the idea of more than 80, but if I ever had to read
code statements longer than about 120, I'd require a wrap-around

Let's keep it within a comfortable field of view, please. Just
because we can doesn't mean we should.
