I do the same except put a double dot at the beginning of the line. anyway i
thought there might have been something someone must have come up with. i
saw an Add-In for VC6 and though why wouldnt it work for VB6. I also have
some code that seems to do it but will have to look at it in detail to see
if it actually works.

While it doesn't save the bookmarks, this may be useful:
http://www.earlsoft.co.uk/projects/vbtasklist/VBTaskList.exe
It lists all the 'TODO and 'FIXME comments in the code.

Configuration doesn't work yet, but if people are interested, I can do
some more work on it :p
