I'm getting pretty tired of typing every little property and declaration i need... so i figured i would right a program to help make 10 or more properties much faster and then add error checking myself
I have 3 options i thought of

1. create a program that will quickly let me add properties to a textbox, and then save this as a .vb file

2. same as number one but using clipboard instead

3. use Macros

all 3seem like valid solutions to me but i think the key lies in macros.
i'm going to start reading up on them in the next few minutes.

i'm just looking for anyone to tell me that macros are the best solution for this task
 
I would guess so - the class viewer does exactly that, but it only works with C# code. A shame really.
 
You may also want to look into Addins. You can create an addin
project from the New Project dialog, and then you can have
VS.NET load this addin on startup. A wizard will set up the project
for you.

divil, I didn't know the class viewer did that. Thanks for the info.
 
I only really started using the class viewer when I started writing serious C# code, it's a handy shortcut for adding overrides.
