Have you seen the Parameter Infor that lets you cycle thought the Overloads. Have you notice on some of them there are addtional Parameter information for example if you do this one:

FormsAuthentication.HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile()

It will pop up as:

[tt]HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile(password As String, passwordFormat As String)[/tt]

and below that, depending on which argument you are on will see either:

[tt]password:
The password to be hashed.[/tt]


or:

[tt]passwordFormat:

The has algorithm to use. Choices are "sha1" or "md5".
[/tt]

Well my question is, how do you do you make it do that?

I believe it has to do with the XML comments. Although I do not know how to get it to happen I would start by looking at the XML comment extraction that you can do. Crystal
