Trying to create text editor that supports VS.Net like regions

[VStennis]

I need to create a text editor that supports VS.Net like regions,
where you can expand and collapse a certain part of the text when it
is enclosed in #region - #endregion. Any suggestions or pointers where
to start or where to look?

This is impossible to answer. Where are you now? Do you need to choose
compiler? Programming language? What text are you going to be
editing? Do you need help creating a GUI? Here is one pointer for you
(no offense):

In VB.NET, try:

shell("devenv.exe")

Try Actipro Software - they have a control called 'Syntax Editor' that is
virtually identical to the code editing window in VS.NET.

Very cool IMO.
