Posted by in Tips And Tricks March 27, 2011 Leave a comment

After I installed Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and created my first project, I recognized that both Word Wrap and Line Numbers options are not available in Source View. It’s very useful when your code lines are long and easy for debugging.

Fortunately, we can easy to adjust these settings by following steps below:

1. In Visual Web Developer, click Tools, and then click Options:

Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express Tools Options

Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express Tools Options

2. When the Options dialog box opens, click the General tab and select options Word wrap and Line numbers checkbox then click OK:

Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express Word Wrap Line Numbers

Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express Word Wrap Line Numbers

This tutorial should be also applied for others products in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Family, ex: Visual Basic 2010 Express, Visual C# 2010 Express, Visual C++ 2010 Express, Visual Web Developer 2010 Express.
