Highlight Fortran90 keywords using VS05+IFORT or VS08+IFORT

I recently tried to install IFORT (Intel Fortran Compiler 11.1) on a previous Visual Studio 2005 installation: everything seems to work except for the fact that f90 keywords are not highlighted at all.
I tried installing IFORT on Visual Studio 2008 and I couldn't either see IFORT compiler from Tools menu.
So I decided to use VS2005 + IFORT 11.1 but without keywords highlighting.
How could I gain this feature? Are there some other parallel ways to obtain it?
Thank you for posting.

I'll certainly do that but I wanted to know if Intel Visual Fortran Compiler 11.1 is supposed to highlight Fortran90 keywords or not. If not I would like to know if other Intel compilers can do it.
Again, I thank you.

Yes, the editor used by Visual Studio will highlight Fortran 90 syntax in various colors. (Not the compiler, per se).

Right - if the Intel integration is installed, and the file is recognized as a Fortran file type, keywords should be colored.
