Colin,

I don't have a menu using the new feature (picture) but my understanding is that there is no substantial change in HOW things are done.

Intellisense, basically as you type, displays in a tool-tip like box showing the available options for commands, the available properties/methods for objects and the parameters available for functions, plus it formats the command/function names. For functions like MessageBox it also shows the values that represent the different options for icons/buttons. It does other stuff too for COM objects and XML functionality. When it displays a list of options you can use the up/down arrow + Tab to select the words highlighted in the list to be inserted into the command line at the cursor position where it last was in the line.
There are a few shortcomings, my most peevous being that the display box will get in the way very often and it seems to keep capitalization for method names but not for property names. In addition, it insists on putting the word "TO" into commands where it would belong if you select the applicable word from the displayed list. In addition, it would be real handy if it worked with WITH/ENDWITH, but it doesn't.

That's some of it.
