Just for your information, there are free applications out there
specifically designed to store Visual Basic source code.
One of those applications is Excalibur CodeLib 2.x, which you can find in
the Software section of my Web site (the first URL below).
Features include:
-- Add-in to VB5, and can also be run outside the IDE as well
-- Export code snippets to new BAS files or paste into existing module
-- Attach file references ("Attachments") to each code snippet
-- Description field for each code snippet
-- Color-syntax highlighting the way VB colors keywords in code
As an extra, the download also comes with an ActiveX DLL for allowing your
own programs to have gradient-colored titlebars.
