Font and color options for the T-SQL text editor Variable Declaration Data type Size

Question

I can not find VS2010 Tools | Options ... | Wednesday | Fonts and Colors Text Editor to control the foreground color of a numeric literal that determines the size of the data types of T-SQL variables, such as varchar, char.

My problem is that my font and color settings (which I downloaded from a blog post - maybe Scott Hazelman, not sure) has a black background for the text editor and a black foreground for the number literal. Therefore, when I type DECLARE @myvar varchar(100) , I do not see "100".

Does anyone know what setting I should look for? I scanned the list several times, trying to make various settings.

Answer 1

I have found a solution. I was looking for a Number display element for Text Editor.

Oddly, however, the setting for the foreground color was “Default,” which appeared to be white in the preview window. The actual color was black. Also, when editing C # I don't have this problem (this was the first time I used VS2010 to edit SQL - I usually use SSMS).

I think there is an error in VS2010 because it did not use the default color.
