Yes. I also notice this, but having lived with it for some years, I just 
instinctively know that I need to 'close solution' and 'reopen solution' 
(because I've done a rebuild or a rerun of cmake etc etc)

It seems to do it less with the most recent CMakes. Perhaps some subtle 
change has occurred, but you'll get used to it. Perhaps when I upgrade 
to 2005 the issue will disappear.
