"Total Visual CodeTools is by far my favorite third-party product...it automates many of the more mundane development tasks. This helps you to get your job done more quickly and allows you to focus on the fun and exciting aspects of application development. My favorite feature is the Code Cleanup. If you've every inherited a code-intensive database, you'll appreciate this feature. The Code Cleanup feature in Total Visual CodeTools automates the process of adding error handling and comments to the procedures that you build. It helps you to standardize code indentations, apply your variable naming convention and sort the procedures that you write. All these features help you to write code that is more readable, robust and maintainable."
- Alison Balter, Author of Mastering Access Desktop Development and Training Videos, Conference Speaker, Instructor, Developer

"With Total Visual CodeTools, you can slip standards in as part of a productivity tool set - and expect that people will actually conform. Also worth a look if you ever expect to go back and try to maintain your won code. Don't overlook the Help file either - rather than just describing the product, it's also got a long and useful section on VB6/VBA best practices."
- Mike Gunderloy, Smart Access eXTRA issue 3.2

"In my job as a senior developer I come across all kinds of half-baked solutions to problems that merely solve one type and create another. Not so FMS. Every product I have purchased from yourselves has had the rare distinction of being used to its maximum possible level, especially Total Visual CodeTools. After installing that product my productivity leapt upwards by several orders of magnitude! You have done a great deal to restore my faith in the software industry. There ARE companies out there that know exactly what we want! Keep up the good work." -- Stephen Horn, Systems Administrator, Chisholms Computers Ltd.

"An amazing time saver. Completely customizable procedures, comments, and error handlers at the push of a button. At least a dozen other helpful development utilities. I don't know how I managed without it."
-- Rob Bovey, MCSE, MCSD Application Professionals

"Return on investment can be measured in days - our developers write better quality code, adhering to our corporate standards, from day one - even in the prototypes." -- Ola Strandberg, Chief Technology Officer, Sweden

"One of the things I like about Total Visual CodeTools is that I can set it up to do all the standard work when creating a new procedure. I set it up once and I get all the standard information and error routines that I want and I can concentrate on writing better code. I sometimes wonder why it is called Microsoft Access and not FMS Access. They write much better development tools."
-- Hugo Pedersen, Denmark

"I have to maintain and enhance code from a variety of sources. Total Visual CodeTools lets me do this with a minimum of effort. Its cleanup feature has saved me hours of frustration dealing with poorly formatted code. It's also great for maintaining a consistent format across multiple developers. It's an absolutely wonderful product." -- Travis Gibson, Cumberland, WI

"Total Visual CodeTools is one of the essential development tools that I use on a daily basis. The procedure and property builders have helped me establish and maintain consistent names and code formats throughout my project while also saving me time by handling many of the tedious parts of coding. This tool makes it easy to adhere to the coding standards you've set for your projects. The improvements in the new version are wonderful. Good Job!"
-- Sandra Daigle, Microsoft MVP, Cleveland, TN
