Regions in .NET

I use regions a lot but for some reason they are always opening on their own. I will close the project, with all the regions collapsed and when I open the project again they will be uncollapsed. Does anyone know if there is anything I can do about this? Is anyone else having this problem?

Edit:
Specifically I am talking about the regions for classes, functions, and properties... the ones that VS.NET makes for you

Edit2:
Yes I save the project before exiting.

Hmmm... Try tools->Options-Editor->C#->Formationg check/uncheck the "Collapse #regions when files close"

Think that might do the trick

Mine says Collapse #regions when file opens. Checked or unchecked they are all uncollapsed when I open the project.

The state of your regions are usually saved in your *.user files for each project, are you sure they are not read protected or deleted somehow.

I have a csproj.user file but no .user file.

This is the contents of the csproj.user file

<VisualStudioProject>
<CSHARP LastOpenVersion = "7.10.3077" >
<Build>
<Settings ReferencePath = "C:\Projects\Classes\evIniFile\bin\Release\;
<Config
Name = "Debug"
EnableASPDebugging = "false"
EnableASPXDebugging = "false"
EnableUnmanagedDebugging = "false"
EnableSQLServerDebugging = "false"
RemoteDebugEnabled = "false"
RemoteDebugMachine = ""
StartAction = "Project"
StartArguments = ""
StartPage = ""
StartProgram = ""
StartURL = ""
StartWorkingDirectory = ""
StartWithIE = "true"
/>
<Config
Name = "Release"
EnableASPDebugging = "false"
EnableASPXDebugging = "false"
EnableUnmanagedDebugging = "false"
EnableSQLServerDebugging = "false"

StartAction = "Project"
StartArguments = ""
StartPage = ""
StartProgram = ""
StartURL = ""
StartWorkingDirectory = ""
StartWithIE = "false"

</Settings>
</Build>
<OtherProjectSettings
CopyProjectDestinationFolder = ""
CopyProjectUncPath = ""
CopyProjectOption = "0"
ProjectView = "ProjectFiles"
ProjectTrust = "0"
/>
</CSHARP>
</VisualStudioProject>

This is what I ended up doing...

Open VS.NET

Right click on the text editor and goto outlining and select "Toggle all Outlining".
