May I know how to develop application (Using Visual Basic) as like SQL Query
Analyzer that color code the text as user enter the script without any delay.
Currently I use 2 For loops (The outer one used to color string and comment
while the inner one used to color the keyword) and the drawback was it took 4
seconds to color a stored procedure of approx 2500 lines.

Thank you very much if you could suggest a better solution or is there any
references I can make use of it.
