c# - Is there a ToString() generator available in Visual Studio 2010?

Question

Is there any way to generate a ToString() using Visual Studio 2010?

I really don't want to do this by hand!

[EDIT]

I'm looking for a simple string representation of my model. In previous IDEs * ToString generation has been enabled in the UI using simple templates and field selection.

Currently default implementations of Equals and Hashcode are offered in a similar pattern. I'd hoped there was something similar for ToString.

It seems not by default - thanks for the responses!

(* this is my first .net project)

You can create your own custom snippet for every boilerplate code and access it from IntelliSence
Here is a good tutorial http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms165392.aspx

Have a good look at how to create snippets with replacements. You can create quite generic structures.
