If I do not begin my file with:

<%@ language="VBScript"%>

...I do not get the syntax highlighting in my ASP code.

The language directive can't exist anywhere except the first line of code,
meaning that I cannot just insert this at the top of each file as many are
server side includes.

How can I tell the VS2005 IDE that my code is VBScript unless I specify
otherwise?

It is a known bug in VS 2005. There is no workaround, sorry.
