development - Where is the ArcGIS Snippet Finder?


I am just going through the "Building custom UI elements using add-ins" walkthrough. ArcGIS integrated development environment (IDE) is installed. No problems creating the ArcMap Add-on project until i get to the part where i am suppose to RIGHT-CLICK in the editor window and select the ArcGIS Snippet Finder...


There is no ArcGIS Snippet Finder on the shortcut menu that pops up (see attached)


An example of what i should be seeing is here: http://help.arcgis.com/en/sdk/10.0/a...0000036s000000

Saw a few posts about this on the ESRI forums. This one in particular mentions:


for Visual Studio Express 2008/ArcGIS 10; - in VS, click on Tools>Code Snippets Manager - Click on Add... and browse to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common 7\IDE\VBExpress\Snippets\ArcObjects - Click OK and OK - ArcObjects will now appear in the "Insert Snippet" context menu


Does that work?


For ArcGIS10.1 with MS Visual Studio Express 2010 users, change the above path to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\VCSExpress\Snippets\ArcObjects if using VC#, and presumably change VCSExpress to VBExpress if you're going down the VB route.
