Hi Shelley,
I wrote a small script in Python that does this very thing for HTML tags...
It should be fairly trivial to condition it to look for code comments. It
matches patterns based on regular expressions. To run it you need to
download Python, which can be found at http://www.python.org/
If you would like me to send my code, I would be happy to oblige.
