Coloring syntax automatically
When you develop code in the Code window, the editor colorizes each word according to its classification:
• VBA keywords and programming statements are usually displayed in blue.
• Comments are displayed in green.
• All other text is displayed in black.
This colorization makes the code much easier to read.
- Syntax highlighting and coloring
The Code window also uses the following colorization techniques:
• Lines of code containing errors are displayed in red.
• Selected text is white on blue.
• The line where execution paused for debugging is shown as a yellow highlight.
• Breakpoints that you set for debugging purposes are shown as a red dot in the left margin with the code in white on a red background.
Bookmarks (which you set in the code) are indicated by a blue dot in the left margin.
^r Breakpoints (along with bookmarks) are lost when you quit the application. For more information on them, see "Setting breakpoints" on page 35.
r^ you can modify the default colors for syntax highlighting by clicking Tools ► Options, clicking the Editor format tab, and making your changes.
