Error while opening file in VS2010 Beta 2

Question

I installed VS2010 B2 on my Win 7 machine. I create a simple DLL project and try to open the file Class1.cs that gets created by Default. I get a error message "The operation could not be completed. Invalid Pointer. So far i have seen this and similar error messages on previous versions of VS2010. Anyone else faced and solved this problem?

Answer: It seems i have to use true type fonts. The moment i changed the editor font from Inconsolata to Consolas the problem was fixed. Found this solution connect.microsoft

Sounds like a pretty fatal error in a fundamental operation, so it's unlikely to be a simple bug that was overlooked - it's more likely to be a problem with your install - If it were me, I would try reinstalling it (and do so with the default options - if the install was customised it's vaguely possible that a required component was not installed)
