Microsoft Word文字编辑器

Question

new to programming here. What is the best way to use Microsoft Word to write code?

Is there some sort of code editor built in? What about html?

I have already tried asking around and didn't see anything on this internet site about it.

Answer 1

If you have already written code in a programming code editor (Notepad++, Visual Studio, Eclipse etc.) you can put the code in a Word document by following these instructions in Word:

1. go to "insert" tab, click "object" button.
2. choose "OpenDocument Text" which will open a new embedded word document
3. copy and paste your code from Visual Studio / Eclipse inside this embedded word page
4. save and close

The result looks very nice. Here are the advantages of this method:

1. the code keeps its original layout and colors
2. the code is separated from the rest of the document, as if it was a picture or a chart
3. spelling errors won't be highlighted in the code (this is cool !)
4. And it takes only few seconds.

reference : How do you display code snippets in MS Word preserving format and syntax highlighting?

However, if you want to write code, from scratch, then you should use a text editor application such as Eclipse, Notepad++ ,Visual Studio etc.

There is of course Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) which you can access from Word and write some smart scripts in it (also you can record scripts/macros). But I'm not a real programmer. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff604039(v=office.14).aspx
