VS.NET and locating namespaces

Is it just me, or does the MSDN documentation lack details of the
namespace any given class is contained in?

Also, why is there no way of searching the object browser? Or again,
is it just me who doesn't know his way around VS.NET?

Under the class's "overview" you will typically find a mention of the
namespace it lives in.

Yeah... I was pretty disappointed by it too. It doesn't show much, doesn't
tell much.... I was expecting full reflection in there but no.

In Visual Studio, if you type for example 'SqlCommand' in de index of
the dynamic help, and you double click on 'SqlCommand class', you get
an overview of all properties and methods. Click 'SqlCommand overview'
on top of that page, and then you'll see clearly that it's contained
in the 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand' namespace.

This is the case for all classes in the .NET framework, so you should
not have difficulties finding the correct namespace.

I don't use the object browser a lot. Don't think that searching is
possible here.

Ah ha!

Yes, you would.

Thanks.
