I know there's a way to create comments so that when I'm using a function from a class that I've created there will be a comment.
For example:
thing.thinghappens
When I mouse over thinghappens I could get a tip describing what the function does, not just what parameters are required.
 
As far as i know it is planned for the next version of vb.net. I'm using vb.net 2003 and it doesn't have that functionality, atleast not to my knowledge, maybe vb.net 2005 does. I've heard of ways round but i have never got it to work. To be honest i don't think you can do it, atleast not easily anyway. But i could well be wrong
 
This is new in 2005, it works great as I have seen.
There exist 'workarounds' in 2003 to add standarized comments for use in generating documentation, but I never heard of any getting custom intellisense out of it.
