<para> (Visual Basic)
Visual Studio 2008
Specifies that the content is formatted as a paragraph.
<para>content</para>
The <para> tag is for use inside a tag, such as <summary> (Visual Basic), <remarks> (Visual Basic), or <returns> (Visual Basic), and lets you add structure to the text.
Compile with /doc to process documentation comments to a file.
This example uses the <para> tag to split the remarks section for the UpdateRecord method into two paragraphs.
''' <param name="id">The ID of the record to update.</param> ''' <remarks>Updates the record <paramref name="id"/>. ''' <para>Use <see cref="DoesRecordExist"/> to verify that ''' the record exists before calling this method.</para> ''' </remarks> Public Sub UpdateRecord(ByVal id As Integer) ' Code goes here. End Sub ''' <param name="id">The ID of the record to check.</param> ''' <returns><c>True</c> if <paramref name="id"/> exists, ''' <c>False</c> otherwise.</returns> ''' <remarks><seealso cref="UpdateRecord"/></remarks> Public Function DoesRecordExist(ByVal id As Integer) As Boolean ' Code goes here. End Function
