Commenting out VB code

[Guest]

Is there a better way to comment out code in VB than putting a single quote
in front of each and every line?

You can select all of the text you want to comment out and press CTRL-K. To
uncomment press CTRL-K, CTRL-U.

You could always skip putting the single quotes in front of the lines you
DON'T want to comment out... ;-)

On the "Text Editing" toolbar of Visual Studio.NET there are two buttons,
one to automatically comment out the selected lines of text, and another to
uncomment them. I use these buttons religiously.

Sometimes I comment out a large block of code by surrounding it with a
conditional compile directive, like this:

#If 0 Then
<code here is commented out>
#End If
