Join For Freedo you make lots of edits to your tfs work items? do you ever look at a field in the ui and think…
last time i looked that was a 4? why is it a 6? who changed it?
if you have, then the tfs field annotate is for you. connect to tfs, select a work item and see the history on a single field.
the tfs field annotator shows you just the changes to a particular field. so like the source code annotate it gives you line level tractability with ease.

troubleshooting
if you are using windows 8 consumer preview you will not get an automatic launch of the application due to an extra security check for applications that come from the internet.
- click or press “start” and scroll all the way to the right
- select the tfs field annotator
- when the security dialog pops up click “more info”
- click “run anyway” to launch the application and add it to the safe list
- done
