Yes, this can mitigate the indentation issue . . .

I've worked with programmers where their functions were 100's if not 1000's of lines long. It seems to be equally unreadable if you're looking at an unindent or an ENDIF or a } that is five levels (indentions) deep and you have to page up 10 times to guess at the beginning condition. It's just a pet peeve of mine. If it doesn't fit onto a single page of the display (+/-) then you can probably break it into another method. Please give that method a meaningful name too! Most abbreviations suck! </rant> Kevin Cully CULLY Technologies, LLC Sponsor of Fox Forward 2006! http://foxforward.net Ed Leafe wrote: > First, I don't quite agree that the tab is invisible.
