Is there a 'wizard' for overriding a method or property

Apologies if I'm being dumb, but can anyone tell me if there's any way the VS IDE makes it any easier to override a method (c# or vb).

At the moment I'm having to find the method signature, copy it in and override it by hand.

I'm sure that somewhere I found a way of getting the IDE to create the override for me, but maybe I dreamt it.

It would just save a lot of typing and looking things up, especially when inheriting from a system class or an external class library.

The C# IDE will autocomplete an override. Try this:

public class A
{
protected virtual void foo() { }
}

class B : A
{
public override //type space here

}

When you type a space after the override, we will bring up a list of methods to override in the completion list. Choose foo() and we will generate:

protected override void foo()
{
base.foo();
}
