AM using 20 yrs old laptop with windows xp so i installed vs 2008 in it to learn c++. I just don't know how to format the code even though i have done it in my fathers laptop in vs 2022... i want to know if i can format my code in vs 2008.
C++ has evolved considerably since VS2008 was released. Your learning experience will benefit from working with a current version of Visual Studio so you should look into modernizing your environment if possible.
As far as code formatting is concerned the keyboard shortcut of Ctrl-K,Ctrl-F worked in my old version of VS2008 Professional.
