When you work in VB.Net and you reference a component.
The your create an object to represent the component. Then if the
outocomplete feature shows you a list of available methods in the class, and
then you have that tooltip that pops up next to the item that you have
selected... how would you add those into components that you create?
My first guess is to add an attribute to the method, but I have not been
able to find one that works. Anyone have a clue?
Thanks

Hi David,
Sorry, you change language and write in C# whereupon you can specify these
things in comments above your methods. So far VB doesn't have this facility. I
believe it will be coming though, it seems silly only having it in C#. Many VB
developers are asking about it.

Hi, It's called XML Documentataion. It's not available in VB.NET by default,
but don't worry!! There are programs that allow you to do such things.
Mr Wagner has a link to some such programs, I believe they are free.
