Visual Studio Question
-
I used to use Borland's IDE and they had a cool tool called an object browser (I think) which was analagous to an object-oriented pedigree. It is essentially an image of boxes representing classes and lines representing relationships (vis inheritance). I find it a much simpler way to visualize complex inheritance than the object browser included in MS's product. If there an add-in or this facility built in which I have just not discovered yet? Thanks.

VC 8 has that for some languages, it's called the class designer.
