From: Bee on 4 Apr 2010 10:31 For example, if I wamt to find something that is as the end of a line. In one case I was trying to find the use of End. Searching for End find lots of End If and others but stepping through 70,000 lines of code takes way to long. If I could have done RegEx then finding End alone woukd be much easier.

From: FM on 4 Apr 2010 11:53 Bee, for a quick solution try using an external editor as ralph suggested. Notepad++ is good enough and free and has syntax highlighting. If you copy your code into Notepad++ and select VB in the language menu and then search for "End", every instance of the word searched gets highlighted as though it were in a coloured label. It should take less than 10 minutes to scroll through 70000 lines of code to see each instance of "End".
