Is anyone successfully editing .vbs scripts in Visual Studio 2005?

Question

I'd like to do some VB Scripting and am looking for a good editor. It occurs to me that I might be able to just edit it with VS 2005.

Are you using VS 2005 to edit .vbs scripts? Any pointers on that?

Answer 1

I found this pointer but haven't started using it yet: http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vbide/thread/bb28fc96-36ae-4590-aedf-b7eb75fe1526

Any other suggestions?

Answer 2

While I imagine you could probably write VB scripts in VS 2005, I'm not sure what the benefit would be. There is no support for VB scripts built-in to the IDE, nor will the debugger be of use.

If you are looking for an editor with a debugger for VB Scripts, check out VbsEdit.

I use notepad++, which supports auto-completion.

Also, check out Komodo Edit. I have not used it much, but it does support auto-completion as well.
