Choosing an Alternate
Editor
Microsoft® Visual InterDev™ allows you to choose from a variety
of editors to work with files in your project. The default editors are:
-
The HTML editor, which allows you to edit the layout of your Web
page and create scripts. The HTML editor opens automatically when you
create or open an HTML page or ASP page.
-
The style sheet editor, which opens when you create or edit a
cascading style sheet (.css file).
-
The text editor, which opens when you create or edit a text file.
-
If you prefer, you can use an alternate editor. Choices include:
-
Microsoft® FrontPage®, which you might use if you
are already familiar with FrontPage, or if you want to take advantage of
specific FrontPage features such as WebBots.
-
An external editor of your choice.
You can choose a specific editor to open a page as needed, or you can make
it the default editor for that type of page.
To open a Web page in a selected editor
-
In the Project Explorer, right-click the name of the file and then
choose Open With.
-
Select an editor to use. If you want to make your choice the default
editor, choose Set as Default.
