    I know there is a file where if you add words to it, it will highlight them in the Visual C++ Code Editor. Does anyone know what the name of this file is?

    From http://www.codeproject.com/tips/usertype.asp:

    Visual Studio allows you to specify your own keywords for syntax coloring. You simply need to provide a file called UserType.dat. This file should contain each keyword you want highlighted, with each keyword on a separate line.

    Place the file in the same directory as msdev.exe, and then in Visual Studio go to Tools | Options and select the Format tab.
    Shab.

    Code:
    Print WeekDayName(vbMonday)
