VB Code Copier Or Printer!

[garthield]

Hi,

I am doing my A Level Coursework and wish to copy my code in the format and style it is in the visual Basic code view. Is there anyway of doing this, as copying and pasting is not that good?

Yeah, I'm in the same boat; just pasting into Word looks awful.

You could try out Pretty Printer, it's not a free product but it has free trials available. Another (free) product you can try out is my very own Source Edit, it has the ability to create HTML output that keeps the syntax highlighting colors intact. You could then print it from your webbrowser.

I've just downloaded SourceEdit, and it looks pretty good. Only problem is, when publishing to HTML, words like 'For' are highlighted in blue despite the fact that they are contained in function names (eg. ValidForm). Is there a way to stop this?

[Joacim Andersson]

Oh, I've never noticed that before. If that's the case it's a bug that I have to fix before the next release. In the mean time I guess you have to edit the generated HTML.

Just a side note: I have my own forum for Source Edit, this isn't the place to have further discussions about it .

Have you tried copy/paste into Wordpad instead? That works well when pasting out of VB.Net. I haven't tried it from VB6 though.
