Cobol editor for visual studio

[pastageek]

Are there any free ones that I can get so I can write COBOL in my project? Even if it is obsolete, I really don't have any money to spend on compilers.

Also are there any like that for FORTRAN as well?

can you give some more info?

do you require editor for cobol ?
or compiler ?
same for fortran ?
and why visual studio ?

A visual studio IDE plugin would be ideal for both, though I did find a dot NET version of Lisp with an IDE similar to VS. Even that is acceptable. Yes I do want an editor, but it would be nice for the editor to have the compiler in it. Basically I want to be able to write in several .NET languages. Net Express with .NET - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com I thought would be good, but no, It won't install.

the following editor may suit you.

DaanSystems - LispIDE - Lisp and Scheme Editor IDE

some editors are available for cobol and fortran syntax.
but you have to tweak it a small amount.

you can even personalize for a compiler you have.

I already have a good lisp editor for the .NET and I've finally found one for FORTRAN, the Silverfrost one for fortran 95, but I still can't find a good one for cobol since the the one from download.com doesn't work.

the current scintilla based scite has cobol highlighting.
in addition , already fortran and 10 to 20 other language options are available.

as i said in my earlier post , this one editor can be used for most of the languages and you can have a compiler of your choice and make an ide by yourself.
