Visual Studio 2013 Update 3 - No Intellisense?

Visual Studio 2013 Experts:

How do you enable intellisense when editing a single source file (or can you)?

  1. Start Visual Studio 2013 Professional (Version 12.0.30626.00 Update 3 RC) -- fully registered.

  2. Click on "File -> Open -> File ..." and select a VB.Net source file, ie: filename.vb

  3. Type a statement such as: if ( String. ^--- at that point isn't intellisense supposed to list all members of the ASP.NET String class?????

Nothing happens; what setting am I missing?

OR

Does intellisense only work in Projects and not with individual source files?

Thanks in advance.

It depends on the file type. In your case, for a VB source file there will be no intellisense without a project.

On the other hand, for files such as Html, js it is available even without a project.

Intellisense only works when working within a project. The project type determines the internal compilers used to create intellisense - without this, you just have a plain text editor.
