hi , i want to edit a file with non ".cpp" extenstion on vs2003. the editor displays the contents as a plain text file( no Intellisence and color scheme). is any way i can configure the editor to treat thi file as cpp source code without changing its file extension ?
Thanks & Regards

Set the Language as "C/C++" in the "Source File Properties". You will get it by right clicking the editor and select the "Properties".

the editor does not contains a "Properties" option on context menu. i tried "view->properties" but property panel contains nothing. iam using VisualStudio2003, doing a console application project.
thanks

I am sorry, I said about VC6. I am not so sure about how to do it in VC7.

Hmm, ".cpp" should be handled by default by Visual Studio. Are you sure you have installed the C++ component of Visual Studio? You can always try running the VS installer and doing a repair... Just my two cents.

I only have VC2005 right now. I think that VC2003 and VC2005's IDEs are very much similar. :)
