For some reason whenever i work on a certain project, visual studio will suddenly close itself after a minute or two of having it open. It doesnt seem to do it with any other projects. It had worked fine until the other day, and I hadnt made any real changes to the code either. Any idea why it would do this? I've done virus scans and all sorts of things. I even reinstalled visual studio.

In our company we had similar problems with really large projects.
Try the following:
Go to Tools->Options->Editor and disable all four "Statement completion options". This _might_ help.

So, having a large cpp could cause it to crash?
are you talking about tools-options-text editor? there's no plain "editor" in my list. Then when i go under text editor, i have to go under "all languages", and theres only three statement completion options - auto list members, hide advanced members, and parameter information. I turned those off and it still crashes. Does any of this sound familiar?
Edit* I went through and deleted a whole bunch of empty space in my .cpp file and it doesnt seem to be crashing anymore. So does this mean theres a limit or is there something I can do about it?

Not necessarily.

I'm sorry. This was for VS6.
For VS7.1:
Well I don't know exactly. Turn off the dynamic help, auto complete and such things. It should do the trick.

There is no limit, but the IDE itself seems to be buggy in some cases...
