.NET 2.0
Recently I have been asked by multiple people what rapid design tools I use, or
what types of code generation tools do I use. Many people are surprised when
I tell them that for the most part I don't use any rapid generation tools.
I do use a few home grown tools, such as my Info Class Generator, which is available
on this site. However, that is as far as I go with automated code generators.
However, one thing that I have started using more and more frequently are Code Snippets
within Visual Studio.
I have found that creating a few helpful Code Snippets has allowed me to quickly
and easily format my code, and build my needed structures in almost no time.
In this blog article I will share two of my most commonly used Code Snippets, if
there is a demand I will post future code snippets here as well.

At one time or another I think everyone has been locked out of a system and not been able to get back in.
