      I guess the reason google didn't help is that I don't believe .NET has support for macros. macros in C++ are a preprocessor definition, ie a hack, inherited from C.

      Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++ "I am working on a project that will convert a FORTRAN code to corresponding C++ code.I am not aware of FORTRAN syntax" ( spotted in the C++/CLI forum )

        Macros are only one of the extensibility tools provided by Visual Studio .NET, but they are easy to develop quickly, and they have surprising clout. Unlike most other Microsoft products, Visual Studio .NET macros are built out of full .NET code, which means they can use any part of the .NET class library. This allows macros to write XML files, display forms, and even contact remote Web services as part of their work. (For information about other types of Visual Studio .NET extensibility, and help choosing which one suits a particular problem. Macros[^]
