codesnippets in Express edition 2008

[Marc]

I am studying .NET with the Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition.

I tried to use codesnippets in the IDE. In a C# class I type prop and a
popup comes with 'Code snippet for an automatically implemented property' so
I think that if I press enter something like below would be inserted in my
code. But instead nothing happens. Do the code snippets not work for this
version? Or should I do something special? How do I get a codesnippet for a
property in my source code?

private ;
public
{
get
{
return ; }
set
{
= value;
}

Press tab two times!

And what happens when you click your heels while repeating "there's no place
like home" huh? (movie trivia)
Attaboy for coming back and recording this as I was wondering myself.
