For the love of gawd, I need VB.Net help!

Friends, Romans, Brits, So Africans, Australians, et al, <g>

Are there any decent, and free, add-ins for storing and managing code
snippets?

Also, how about anything close to the vb5/6 class builder add-in for
VB.Net? Something short of Visio would be good.

A good property builder add-in is another one I would appreciate.

I've been away from programming for a couple years so thank you for
any help.

Regards,

Don

VS.NET 2005 has a built in snippet manager.

I used to use a solution to store all my small bits of code though and it
worked ok.

In 2003 environments I use CodeLib:

Fantastic program and I hear that they just released an addin for VS.

In VS2005 there is a property buiding snippet. All you have to do is
type Property and hit tab and the property template magically appears.
I'm sure that you can edit it to tweak it to your needs but I haven't
done so yet. Too much else to learn.

That Tab bit works the same for all snippets. You can go through the
snippet menu for each snippet, but if you're going to use one often
then just type the shortcut and hit tab.

Hi Ray,

I should have said that I'm using VS.Net 2003. Sorry.

I downloaded CodeLib (MSAccess version) and the VS 2003 add-in but am
a bit confused by the web site. It appears that the download is an
evaluation version that does not come with the database. Without the
Db almost all the features are not even present.

The website is cool but the English is extremely poor so I can't
really figure out what's going on.

Do you know if you have to pay to get a working version to evaluate?

Thank you,

Don
