That is obviously serious. I have not experienced this 
problem, and I have extensively used the built-in editor.
However, I have not used Notepad++. Anyhow, I would contact 
Stata's techsupport:

It would be very helpful if you can give them a sequence
of opening and closing files that on your computer leads
to corruption of the .do file. It is easier for them to 
track down a problem if it also happens on their computer.
