TFS Quick Tip: Use HTML in the History field for Work Items

I have just been editing the project templates to enable HTML in the description field.  As it turns out, the description field is locked down as plain text.

This history field is HTML though, and if you want to add formatting to it, just enable the formatting toolbar in Visual Studio.

You can this by right clicking anywhere in the toolbar area and selecting “Formatting” from the list of toolbars.

Nice!
