What about the extreme cases where there are 2 or more declarations of differn't case for the same name? Does it give you an option or warning?

The compiler (MSVC) doesn't. The IDE just don't do any automatic fixes
in such a case.

Also, you really shouldn't propose Walter to add warnings - he hates 'em. =)

Sorry, I was talking about the IDE Visual Assist , and it wasn't a proposal, it was a question. I know VB does something simular, but it's case-insentitive to start with.
