In VFP I like to use the mouse method to highlight the lines that I want to comment out. Then I LOVE the right-click context menu option to comment/uncomment the highlighted text.

In the VS2010 *beta* that I have on my computer, there is NO such option in the context menu. Did this change in the final product? Not only that, but, apparently commenting and uncommenting code is an "Advanced" option in the main File menu!!!! Whoa. Wouldn't want programming noobs messing around with such dangerous features now :)




>I agree with Tim ... and the nice thing about highlighting with the mouse is that you don't have to actually highlight the entire block from the left side of the IDE ... highlighting even just a part of a line will cause it to be commented. I'm sure that's true when using the keyboard shortcuts also, but as Tim points out, if you are using the mouse to highlight, you might as well use it to click the toolbar button. I just find that for large blocks of code, mouse highlighting is easier than keyboard highlighting IMHO.
