Take the tour ×  I have some Visual Basic Application (VBA) code
that I need to tweak. Note: I don't need any help in the coding
aspect of it; this is not a programming question.  When I opened
the .vba file in Kate or Gedit, I saw that neither of them have
highlighting/syntax knowledge of Visual Basic code. I understand
that I cannot actually run vba code natively, but I would like
to know if there exists a plugin that will run on some text
editor to do basic code highlighting.  Does anyone know of a
text editor or custom written plugin that I can use?

the box. It's in view -> highlight mode -> sources –  dougBTV
Jun 27 at 17:29 Ah! You're right. I missed that when I first
looked, and I know Kate doesn't have it. If you put this as an
answer, I'll mark it as accepted. Thanks. –  Stephen Schrauger
Jun 27 at 17:32 @StephenSchrauger: gedit to write code is a
very, very lousy piece of advice. –  Emanuel Berg Jun 28 at 1:46
