Hello. I am working in Visual C# 2008 Express Edition, where I get InstelliSense automatically on. I have installed Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition today morning. But in VC++ the IntelliSense feature is not automatically on. I have to press Alt+Right Arrow everytime. Is there any way to enable InstelliSense on alltime? Also I need automatic spaceing like in VC#. Please help.

Go to "Tools" -> "Options..." -> "Text Editor" -> "All languages" or "C/C++" -> "Auto list members" and "Parameter information"

Check the preferences settings in the menu. I have VC++ Express, and the intellisense is always on so I am not sure why it does not work on your system.
