Hello,
In eclipse, if you write a comment such as //TODO something-or-other, you are able to track and navigate back to all of your TODOs via a Task Pane. Is there any similar device in VS?
Thanks, brian

710. Track things you have to do with Task ListThe Task List window (Ctrl+Alt+K) allows you to keep track of the things you have to do. Right click on the Task List window and choose Show Tasks|All to see a list of tasks. Ctrl+Shift+F12 to cycle through your list of tasks.By default, comments marked with a TODO will appear in the task list.

The comments keywords being used to build the task list can actually be configured via Tools->Options->Environment->Task List

A:
Yes, it's also
//TODO: My task
You can look up what tasks you have todo'd by looking at the "Task List"

A:
In Visual Studio, click on the View menu then Task List. Use the drop down on the upper left corner of the Task List to view "Comments".
Bonus info: HACK and UNDONE are also keywords that show up in the list.
To add your own custom keywords, view the Tools->Options menu, selected Environment node, then Task List node.

A:
//todo: whatever
//TODO: work on blah blah
//Todo new screenshot
All work (at least in 2008 and probably previous versions as well).

A:
Try the following
- Click on View -> Other Windows -> Task List (occasionally it's directly under View)
- Switch the ComboBox to Comments
This will now display all TODO comments found in your code base that appear inside comments.
