Team Foundation Server: Creating UI components as part of code check-in

Our organisation is using Team Foundation Server. At the moment, developers are manually adding issue tracking references to their check-in comments. We have a custom check-in policy that enforces a valid reference has been added to the comments.

What I'd like to be able to do is provide the user with a user friendly dialog/UI component that allows them to select an issue from a list which will then insert the reference, in the required format, into the comment box.

We are mainly using Visual Studio 2010 but some development still happens on Visual Studio 2008. The issue tracking software is a 3rd party one called OnTime.

Is this possible? Can someone help point me in the right direction.

Doh! It was as simple as creating an instance of a form and calling ShowDialog within the Evaluate method.
