TODO: FIXME
Java programmers have long been able to embed notes in their code prefaced with TODO or FIXME. Eclipse summarizes these notes in the Task view for quick, easy reference. FIXME is essentially a higher priority TODO reminder.
There is a Flex Builder plugin that performs the same function for ActionScript. It's been around since the days of Flex Builder 2, and it still works.
Be sure that your TODO comments are on single comments lines starting with //; the plugin does not recognize /* TODO comments */ or /** TODO comments */.
This plugin isn't perfect, but it is good to have none the less.

SourceMate for FlashBuilder 4 includes this feature as well - except you're not required to open a file to see the TODOs in the tasks view. I believe this plugin requires you to open the file to see the TODOs.

The plugin only needs to "see" the TODOs and FIXMEs once. They are all displayed afterwards, even if the containing files are closed.
Right, I'm just sure how this is going to work with teams with more than one person and use a source repository (cvs,svn,git,etc). I'm not sure whats going to happen when user B checks out a file updated by user A.
Still the plugin's price is right ;)

In regards to checking out code from a repository from other members, you will end up seeing their TODOs as well.
Thank you I an going to check it out. It will make life easier and the price is right so it looks good. Thanks
