TODO items not showing up in Task List

I want to add comments to my code and have them show up in the Task List.
When I enter lines like the following, they do not appear in the TaskList.

// TODO Fix this function.

What could be preventing these items from showing up in the TaskList?

FWIW: using VS.NET 2003 Enterprise Architect.

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, TODO comments need a colon, like this:

// TODO: Fix this function.

Adding the colon does not help. Any other ideas? Is the task list somehow
filterable? Mine says it's filtered - but I have no idea where to go to
unfilter it... didn't find any straight-forward direction in online help.

Right click on the 'Task List' window, select 'Show Tasks' then check the
item: 'Comment'.

Many thanks! That did the trick.

The next time you compile and have an error, it will flip back to the other
filter tho...
