Hi: The Semantic Errors checkbox to control that stuff is for CSharp. In the VB Text Editor there is a check box to enable error suggestions which you would turn off. If you are in visual studio it might be a little diferent but these are the 2 major things that might turn off that box always telling you you are typing something in error before you are even done typing a word. At least I think these are the 2 main culprets. I will have to check out Jamal's docs on the subject. I will post the url to where you can see his stuff in another post in a few minutes.
