    Code Documentation

    Is there an equivalent of Java Docs in VB.NET? Has anyone used the Tools / Build Comment Web pages for documentation?

    C# has XML documentation in the code if you want to use it. VB.Net doesn't support it though. I have heard there are work arounds or something.

    I use a combination of two open source applications..

    VB.DOC a tool to extract comments from your source and produce xml intermediate files and NDOC to convert the intermediate files to a Microsoft Compiled Help file (.chm)

    I might be not understanding your intention, but in my VB .NET IDE, there is an option under Tools... Build Comment Web Pages... and it documents your code..
    My guess is the 2003 version of the .NET IDE will bring the ///<COMMENT> functionality to VB...

    Fraid not, 2003 will not support this for vb either! Don't know why they don't implement it, it can't be that hard for them.
