A fair while ago I started working on a couple of addins for the VB6 IDE. First I started with a new, tree-view based, project explorer which exposes all the members of each project component, and would eventually, let you access them.

A parallel and related experiment was to develop a 'member explorer' add-in, essentially as above, but using the existing project explorer to select the components, and showing their members ...

I remember running into problems trying to intercept activity in the IDE and stuff like that...

If anyone has any IDE addin experience and/or is interested in helping me resurrect either or both of these projects, reply here or e-mail me.

(note: this project is just for the experience and the kudos of making something cool, if you're looking for something commercial, look elsewhere! )
