Code bookmarks 2

[sacsac]

I'm sure that I'm missing something really obvious here, but I can't see how to put a bookmark in my code in VB2008/VB2010. In VB6 it was easy, but I just can't see how to do it in .NET

I'm using VS2008. I can use the key combo CTRL-K, CTRL-K (that's CTRL-K twice). Or, I can click the edit menu, then bookmarks, then toogle bookmark. Or, I can click on the bluish little rectangle in the top menu bar.

Thanks tcsbiz !

You're welcome.

Another nifty thing (not sure if it's in VB 6) is the task list. You can add tasks that you need to complete. You can also use it to find certain types of comments such as

'TODO: Complete this section of code'

The task list has a drop down to select comments or user tasks.

You can view the task list by clicking view then task list. It's key combo is too goofy to remember.

Thanks for the star by the way.

Is there a way to clear all bookmarks?

 

[sacsac]

You can clear all the bookmarks like this:

Bring up thje Bookmarks windows (use CTL + K CTL + W as a shortcut). You can then select all the bookmarks (or any selection) and delete on block, or alternatively just de-select them on a temporary basis.

Hope this is what you need

Not as good as VB6, but it worked. Thanks!

Like a lot of things in .NET - it's more clumsy than good old VB6 !
