                        A better solution than Notepad for writing/edit ASP Code?

                                        I think the Microsoft Visual Studio Express versions support classic asp

                                        I've used both Notepad++ ( http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ ) and Aptana ( http://www.aptana.com/ ) with the Colorer plugin ( http://colorer.sourceforge.net/ ).
Notepad++ is very light-weight and has all the syntax highlighting built in (as well as other features), and I loved using it. I was looking for something with a built-in FTP for easy upload/syncing of files and that led me to Aptana, which doesn't support .asp files out of the box - hence the Colorer addition. The Aptana/Colorer setup is what I'm using at work right now to maintain a online learning management system written in Classic ASP/VBScript.

Aptana is fantastic guys. Thanks for pointing me to it AnonJr, I've been looking for something like this for a long time.
You can write and automatically upload in your ftp. Great stuff.

                                        You can also use Visual Studio Code. (https://www.visualstudio.com/products/code-vs)
It's a lightweight editor from Microsoft, instead of using Visual Studio.
You can install the syntax highlighting extension for classic ASP here: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=tron.asp

                                        UltraEdit and UEStudio (http://www.ultraedit.com/downloads.html) are both nice, also.  They support classic ASP, have syntax highlighting, function lists, search/replace for all files within a folder, etc.
