Hi, I'm new to this so my knowledge limited:

I'm building a class library in .net using c# language. I can compile it with interop so I can reference it from VBA, and all the public methods show up in Intellisense. However, it would nice if I could put some helper text in the class library so that when a user selects a method in the vba object browser, a description would appear at the bottom. Would anyone happen to know if this is possible, and if so, what is the syntax?

cheers
Al

Al,

Interesting question and what I can mention at this stage is that You can right click on the items and select the command Properties. It's only avaliable for the highlighted items. To which extend it's applicable in Your case I'm not sure as I've never had the situation where I wanted to do it.

Anyway, I will create a COM add-in to explore it myself.

Kind regards,
Dennis
