Collapse Part of Code

#region

#endregion

put code in between and you can collapse it/expand it at will in vs

Regions are the way to go, however, as your Zone is marked Vb.NET, regions are more restricted in VB. You cannot place them inside of a method body (the sytax checker will complain). You can use regions to collapse groups of methods, though.

You also must give your region a name (as a quoted string).

'Error
    Sub Main()
        #region "MyRegion"
        For i As Integer = 0 To 16
            Console.Write("a")
        Next
        #end region
    End Sub

' Proper
#Region "MyRegion"   <-- Must use quotes

    Sub Main()
        For i As Integer = 0 To 16
            Console.Write("a")
        Next
    End Sub

    Sub dosomething()

    End Sub
#End Region

Folks,

"'#Region' and '#End Region' statements are not valid within method bodies." (See attached picture)

So, #Region is only the solution outside "method". I would like to know inside sub, function, methods etc.

Any idea?

change the language you're programming - i.e. use c# instead...unfortunately vb.net does not allow this...

otherwise you could change IDE's i suppose to one that may parse and compile vb and take into consideration regions inside of a method...

See previous comment.

Is there any workaround for that?
