CodeSnippet Today. 02.22.2006

Actually this was sitting in my "to blog" queue for a while, a simple code snippet that's saved me some time in a Windows Forms application.

I found myself typing the code below twice in a twenty minute span when the Code Snippet bell rang.  Nothing clever or complicated, but a timesaver and something I need to remember that's available in my Code Snippet list.  Every so often I need to remind myself of the Code Snippets available in VS2005 but more importantly, the snippets I wrote specifically for my own use.  No good creating snippets if you forget you wrote them. 

Here's the snippet source if interested.  The generated snippet is below followed by the appearance of "frm" in the intellisense list to trigger the Snippet.

Very cool, you should submit it to byteMyCode and get some revisions going. (www.bytemycode.com)

Matthew, thanks for telling me about byteMyCode.  It looks very interesting!

I try to think in terms of Code Snippets and create them as I see the need.  As I said here the biggest problem seems to be remembering the snippets available to me in my personal library or in VS2005.  That's the only reason I don't spend time at sites like byteMyCode or CodeSnippets.net.  I really should though.

Thanks again.
