Today is my first time using C# compiler. Is there any way to make Intellisense display the current enumeration? What I mean is, in VB.Net if I typed:

If e.KeyCode =

Intellisense would IMMEDIATELY display all the possible keycodes which is so helpful for beginners like me.

Well, I would say that the coding styles of both types of languages have been mantained by Microsoft. Finicky, but Visual Basic has always been very forthcoming and forthright in helping programmer (most of the times annoyingly so), and OOPs languages IDEs have always been cold in this regard- and THAT has been mantained. But some IDEs are better poised in this regard like Eclipse doesn’t discriminate amongst languages with its version of 'intellisense'.

To answer your question though, its one of those privileges that only VB programmers enjoy.

And that’s the fun of it too. Because soon you ‘d get use to this apathy, and then you will realize that with visual basic, most of the time you are not supposed to swerve from the beaten paths so VB IDEs show you the options ‘they’ think are right for u with a lot of conviction. With languages like C# and VC++ though, you have a bit more freedom, (in fact with VC++ you have all kind of freedom) so the IDEs don’t pepper u with their opinions and leave you alone letting you do what you want to instead.
