(Since I don't have a desktop software development blog right now I figured I'd better just put this here, since it could apply to C# programming with ASP.NET...)
To automatically generate XML comments in C# using VS.NET 2005, all you have to do is type a triple-whack ("///") in your code before a method definition and the IDE will build out the XML for you.
I accidentally stumbled on this on the same day I was trying to find out how to do it, which doesn't happen too often. I actually found it while nosing around in the VS.NET preferences:
Tools --> Options --> Text Editor --> C# --> Advanced
...which has an "XML Documentation Comments" section and a "Generate XML documentation comments for ///" checkbox.
You really need your miner's helmet for that one! Whew!
