Adding Help in custom classes written VS .Net

Nad
Ok, this is what I am trying to do. I have added my own class to a
project in VS.Net. I want to know how I can add help to the methods in
the class so that when I create an instance of the class in the code
editor and press the dot(.) e.g myobj. I should be able to see the
brief help that I added to each of the methods when I was writing
them, like all the classes in the .net framework provide.

Help appreciated.

Hi Nad,

If you're using C#, there is a feature called "XML Documentation" that you need to use. Currently, VB.NET doesn't have this support aside from 3rd party tools.
