    Intellisense for component

    I created a component for other projects and now I want to add an
    intellisense description to the public properties and methods, which will be
    visible in visual studio .net 2003 - how can i do this?

    Thank's

    You need to use XML comments and generate XML documentation file from
    them. Then you just place this XML file in the same folder as your DLL.
    IntelliSense and Object Browser help will work then. You can also add
    property description in Properties Window using Description attribute.
    See http://tinyurl.com/jh2xk for more info.

    There are several tools that you can use for it, including our VBdocman
    ..NET.
