Changing the Default Templates in Visual Studio.NET

I have thought of doing this several times, but I always think about it when I'm not really ready to do it. That changed tonight.

Jeff Key reminded me to change my VS templates. It truly is very easy.

• Go to %programfiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\VC#\VC#Wizards\.
• Select the wizard that you would like to change the template for (e.g. “CSharpAddClassWiz” for the general 'Add Class' case).
• Enter the Templates\1033 directory of that wizard.
• Edit the .cs file therein.

Very straight-forward. No longer will I feel need to delete those pesky “TODO:...” comments and such. And if I happen to be one of those 'open-curly-on-the-same-line' people, well - so be it! I can now get that as default behavior!

Thanks for the reminder, Jeff!
