When editing an HTA in Visual Studio .NET, I do not have access to the
HTML tab.  I need to rename the file to HTML and then I have access to
the HTML tab.  Isn't there any way to edit an HTA just like an HTML
file?

No, there is no way to enable Design view for HTA. Main reason is that
designer won't render it correctly since scripts are not running in Design
view and that HTAs and HTCs typically are not well formed HTML files.
Designer was not tested on HTA and HTC so there is no guarantee it won't
damage your markup.

Thanks

Dear Mikhail,

thank you very much for your answer, I really appreciate.  However, my
problem is exactly the opposite: I have the Design view and I want to have
the HTML view.  When renaming the HTA files in HTML, I can easily edit HTA's
in Visual Studio.  In fact, I would like Visual Studio to treat HTA's just
like HTML files.  It is very convenient to use the Design view to place my
controls in my HTA, then I can switch to HTML to edit my scripts.
