Funky Build Shows No Errors When Compiling

Something got funky with my build.

I had been happily developing my web site when all of a sudden F6 (or
rebuild solution) decided it was not going to compile my .aspx.cs nor
ascx.cs code and thus I do not get error messages until I try to open
page in browser.

Could someone walk me through how I get this functionality back. In
property pages I have "Build Web site as part of soution" checked but
does not seem to do anything. Sometimes if I right click on the web
site project and select "Build web site" the first time i will get no
errors in the error list and the second time I will get errors.

This behaviour seemed to rear its ugly head rather unexpectedly. Not
sure what I toggled, if anything, that invoked this (ahem) feature.
Needless to say I am having another one of those Microsoft moments of
which I am sure Bill Gates has needed to hire himself an army of
psychic defense artists to repel the curses sent to him daily.

Thanx

What version and edition of Visual Studio?
Assuming you mean VS 2005 or VS 2008, you can try this:

Tools->Import and Export Settings->Reset all settings (follow the prompts to
either save or not save current settings, then select your choice of default
settings collections).
