Help in Design Mode

[Alfredo Barrientos]

Hi,

I have a question. Writing an add attribute statement, the following
help in a tooltip appears:

Add(key As String, value As String)
Key:
The index assigned to the new attribute in the collection.

When i program my own classes i see just the first line of the tooltip,
the definition of my method, but i want to include a help for each
function or sub parameter. Is it possible?

Thanks,

Alfredo Barrientos

XML documentation isn't available in "vanilla" VB.NET 2003, although it
is in 2005. However, I believe there are various free plug-ins for
VB.NET 2003 which provide the functionality. I'm afraid I don't have
any links, but a google search should help you.
