Python and Intellisense

How to make Visual Studio 2008 "find all references" to work correctly?

Just a thing that annoys me. When I right click on a method name a context menu appears with a "Find All References" option. It works ok, except when you're implementing a Interface. Then it lists all references (maybe that's why it's called Find All References?), independent of the class that implements it. Example: interface IGetAT...

I made a small IDE plug-in using Open Tools API that accesses ClearCase. It has menu items "Check In", "Check Out", etc. It works OK but I want it to check out a read-only file automatically if I start typing in IDE editor or if I attempt to save the file.

Are there any serious contendors to Visual Studio for .NET development?

EDIT: This post was originally specific to ASP.NET, but after thinking about it I'm quite interested to discover any contenders to .NET development.

VS.NET Tool to name all controls on form

A while ago, I saw on a Screencast a tool that could be ran in VS.NET IDE. When executed it would prompt to set the Name and Text property for each control. This seemed like a good idea, but I never got around to trying it. Now I can't remember what it is. Does anyone know of a tool that will do this? ...
