Copy Code and Formatting

**golyath** · Apr 20th, 2005, 02:46 PM

Hi there....

Im doing a school project and i was wondering if there was anyway of copying the code form Visual Basic into Word with all of the formatting, e.g. coulours and font and stuff. Cos when i copy it it just all comes out as normal un formatted text...

Cheers for any help...

No, I do not think you can

You could probably write a Macro in Word that could do it though

Cheers,

There're a few of those on the web though. Like the one on http://artsoft.agava.ru/vbcodeformat.htm. I haven't tried it personally, but from the sound of it, it works well.

Oh i found a way of doing it.... Bit awkward but hayho...

If you create a new thread here... then use the VBcode function to add your code, then preview your post and copy it,,, it works fine, thought i would let you no if anyone else wanted to do it... theres still probably an easyier way

cheers

I have an ASP page that does the same (it's not online yet). However... there won't be much difference between pasting it here or in my page.

Sorry, was using the technique described here to format my code, and accidentally posted. My apologies.

Attached is an app I did many years back so I could post formatted code on another site. Viewing the source code generated by the link that Emiliano posted, I would say we are using the technique to do the same thing.
