Question

Is there some AddIn or extension for Visual Studio 2008 that will allow me to run Macro until the end of the file? I really hate holding CTRL+SHIFT+P and waiting until end of the file is reached.

Answer 1

You could record a macro and then open the Macro IDE (Alt + F11) and place the prerecorded macro in a loop like this:

Sub TemporaryMacro()
    selection = DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection()
    anchorPoint = selection.AnchorPoint.CreateEditPoint
    selection.EndOfDocument(True)
    endPoint = selection.BottomPoint.CreateEditPoint()
    selection.MoveToPoint(anchorPoint)

    Do While True
        isEOF = DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.TopPoint.CreateEditPoint().Line = endPoint.Line
        If (isEOF) Then
            Exit Do
        End If

        ' Prerecorded macro
        DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.Text = " "
        DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.LineDown()
        DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.CharLeft()
        ' End of prerecorder macro

    Loop
End Sub
