Tip #10
COMMENTS, COMMENTS, AND MORE COMMENTS

Tip #2 talked about some sample code to create documentation for classes and such that you write in VB.NET

well here is a link to an addin to Visual Studio.NET that will help to make your documentation as easy as can be. This was written by MS, so no worries about installing it (well no more than the usual MS program )

Generating Documentation for Your Visual Basic .NET Applications

I'm confused. Did you have a question regarding the original link or was there something you were looking for?

[Zero2Cool]

Not really. I was just going through them and the one I quoted and posted has a link that is no longer active.

If there's a better location for this post, I would gladly put it there instead.

Sorry for the confusion.

Gee, thanks for all the detailed information. There's no link in your post. There's no indication of where that quote came from for us to look. You don't actually tell us what it is you want or even if you do want something. It's a joy when people take the time and make the effort to post clearly and completely.

I assume that you're talking about XML documentation. If so then the add-in was for VB.NET 2003. VB 2005 supports XML comments natively. When you build your app the XML documentation is created automatically. You can then generate MSDN-style documentation from the XML file using tools like NDoc or the up-coming Sandcastle from Microsoft.

Sorry I thought with my title 'tips tricks' and the contents of the post that it was obvious that I was referring to the sticky at the top of this forum.

Here's the link.
