Function/Property 'handy hints'!

Hi there,

I am currently writing a class and just wondered if it is possible to
included hints and tips pertaining to properties and functions for when the
final DLL is used by other developers, as Microsoft do with, say, the
message box function. I.e when you begin to type msgbox(, a programmer is
presented with:

'String expression displayed as the message in the dialog box.....'

for the first parameter, etc.

It would just be a nice to have so any info would be gratefully received.

Many thanks,

Carl Howarth

Not by default, but there is somthing called "VB Power Tools" (free from
GotDotNet.com) that will allow you to compile comments into your DLLs.
