Intellisense in header files

I just right now "migrated" from C# to C++/CLR. First I was annoyed, that I had to write all class' declarations twice (into .h and .cpp).

Well, I deleted all cpp's of my classes and now I realized, VS won't give me any Intellisense when I work ...

intellisense functionality in a custom VBA function?

In the standard IDE for VBA, intellisense is built-in to many standard VBA functions. i.e. the buttons variable for msgbox() gives you a list of options for how you want the messagebox to be displayed.

What's the meaning of the angle brackets on LINQ methods in Intellisense? (Contains<>, Count<>, Distinct<>, etc.)

They usually involve generics. But some methods with generics don't have them, and not all extension methods have them. They've just "been there" since day one, we've all seen them; but I realized I still don't know what they mean, and I can't find the answer anywhere. Now it's really bugging me. Google just turns up results that a...

C++ Formatting like visual studio c# formatting

I like the way Visual studio (2008) format C# code; unfortunately it seems it doesn't behave in the same way when writing C++ code. For example, when I write a code in this way: class Test { public: int x; Test() {this->x=20;} ~Test(){} }; in C# (ok this is C++ but you can understand what I mean), this part: Test() {this...
