I have a Visual Studio 2008 unit test project that depends on a dll project in the same solution. With this setup, I want to profile a single unit test with a Visual Studio performance session.

Does any else have a problem where when using VS2005 or VS2008, it suddenly 'forgets' to color code and format the text for you? All of a sudden it acts like its a plain old notepad editor.
