For older VS it would be GREAT to have code folding. |

In theory it is, https://daffodil.codeplex.com/, and its something I've messed some with, but haven't got it fully working yet, for the moment its just easier to stick with VC6. |

Even if it were possible, it would be quite tricky, for example, Microsoft's debugger works with his own editor window. We aim to improve Visual Studio's editing experience, not to replace it completely and practically writing a mini IDE inside VC6.  Anyway, newer Visual Studio editors has a loads of improvements. What about to use a newer IDE with VC6's compiler? (didn't do it myself, but it should be possible) |

Actually whats stopping you from just hiding the source window in the background somewhere and creating a new window type similar to the VA Outline, that could actor as a smarter editor. |

curious if you have seen this article

seems semi-possible... just not the most elegant solution. |

Bummer, I really like VAX as I'm somewhat forced to use VC6 for my job, this would be a cool feature, but if its not meant to be than, its not meant to be.
I'm Actually really amazed with how much you guys are able to do at present with such an old IDE. |

Unfortunately we don't have any plans to try and do this. We have to work behind the IDE's back, and VC6 would get very confused and upset if we "hid" large amounts of code by folding it. |
