Visual Studio 2005 Classic ASP syntax highlighting10/31/2005 8:25:25 PM

0/0

How can you setup the Visual Studio 2005 IDE to correctly do syntax highlighting of Classic ASP VBScript code?  I tried renaming the file from .asp to .aspx and opening it in the IDE and it did the syntax highlighting correctly. There must be a setting that I am missing to allow this.



RESOLVED:
I figured it out.
The steps in setting up the IDE are as follows:

  1. Open Visual Studio
  2. Goto the "Tools" menu and click "Options..."
  3. Check the "Show all options" checkbox in the bottom left of the dialog box.
  4. In the right pane expand "Text Editor" and select "File Extension"
  5. Enter "ASP" extension in the "Extension" textbox
  6. Select "Web Form Editor" in the Editor dropdown box
  7. Click the "Add" button and click "Ok" on the dialog box.

Sorry, but this is not correct. What you are seeing in this case is that ASP file is opened as ASPX and you are getting coloring from VB.NET (if you are lucky).

VS 2005 supports coloting of VBScript in classic ASP pages, you simply need to specify the language explicitly

<%@ Language="VBScript" %>

manually or using property grid for the DOCUMENT object (change Default Server Script property).
Thanks
