add try catch around highlighted code

Question

I'm refactoring some code and there are tons of functions with no try catch statements that are causing problems.

Is there a keyboard shortcut in VS 2010 to allow me to select an entire function or highlighted code and add a try catch end try statement around it...with the highlighted code automatically ending up under try ?

Just looking for a shortcut

Answer 1

I'm not aware of a keyboard short-cut, but there's a right-click available.

• Highlight the code for your try block.
• Right click and select
• "Surround with..." Scroll down the selection until you see the "try" snippet label.
• There you go!

Hope this helps!

I'll dig around to see if there's a keyboard short cut for this. There probably is -- there's hundreds of them.

UPDATE: Looks like the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl + K, Ctrl + S.
