intellisence

[Andy Read]

Dear all,

Can anyone tell me why the VS IDE does not display the methods /
functions etc for the base class object. This may be a stupid question but
I expected to see the ToString function or the Equals function in the
intellisense?

Example:

Dim obj as New Object

obj. ???

Am I going mad?

Thanks

Re: intellisence

I think you're going mad. : P

I'm not sure why the Intellisense isn't working for your
object. I just tried it to see if I could do it and it
worked.

Example:
object obj = new object();

//typing obj. produced an Intellisense list consisting of:
Equals
GetHashCode
GetType
ToString

Longshot: Check your setting and make sure that the "Hide Advanced
Members" checkbox is cleared for the VB editor.

Re: intellisence

Thanks to all that replied, I cleared the check box "Hide Advanced Members"
and it now works a treat.

Cheers.
