Sometimes as you type a key word in vbe the list of properties does not come
up
for a trivial example after <activesheetand a dot no drop down list comes .
sometimes if you click list of properties icon(control+J) the list comes up
and sometimes even then the list does not come up.

when you half type a reserved word one can invoke complete word(A+incon or
control+space). sometimes it does not. For e.g. if you type <acti and if
you invoke this icon it does not get completed as <activate


any solutions.
