Doesn't VB.NET also generate XML help from the comments ? Or are you VB6 ? Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

I don't use VB.NET at all, ever. But in C#, if you type three slashes instead of two, you get the comment block that will convert to XML. Obviously, VB.NET does not use slashes at all. A quick google adds this to the list of things that C# can do that VB.NET cannot, sorry. XML comments will be new in VB.NET 2005. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

Soo I did a google, followed a couple of links, found this one. http://www.devx.com/codemag/Article/28267/0/page/4[^] and then a link sent me to msdn.. haha VB 2003 can have XML documentation very similar to C#, except using 3 apostrophes. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dv_vstechart/html/vbgeneratingdocs.asp[^]

OK - it's just not standard. I found an article explaining how 'with VS2005, VB users can do XML comments just like people using C#'. I'm glad you found a solution. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

Yeah, VB.NET 2002 and 2003 don't support doing this. At least without using a third party add-in, like VBCommentor. In 2005, this works just like it does in C#, only using '''. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome
