Or to make things worse, JavaScript does NOT give an error. It just doesn't work and you are left scratching your head wondering why.

I do the BEGIN CASE / END CASE at the start of the case, then insert CASE A / CASE B / CASE C / CASE 1, then insert the logic for each in their own section. I do the same with IF / END, LOOP / REPEAT and other similar constructs. I'd like to think that it's because I code in JAVA / JAVA script, like Doug, but, the truth is, it helps me remember to put in the end of the construct! I hate it when the compiler complains and you have to start searching through - when Unidata complains that there is a problem at line 42 - the ONLY thing that you know... there is a problem in the source code, and it's NOT at line 42! <smile>.

I find that my programming style after 27 plus years as UniBasic programmer has changed. For example I would normally type: BEGIN CASE CASE WHATEVER Now I type this first: BEGIN CASE END CASE This is something I do when I code in Java or JavaScript as well because the Eclipsed based editors I use make me finish the syntax. I think you will find that you code is much better because the compiler is always telling me what I've left off. It is unfortunate you won't change because I think you will find XLr8Editor on Eclipse the makes coding more enjoyable, easier, efficient, and produces better quality. And the irony of this situation is the code is still be created by you.

It would piss me off mightily to have my editor constantly tapping me on the shoulder and telling me that my unfinished program wouldn't compile. I frequently stop to think while I am coding, sometimes for several minutes. My editor compiles and catalogs on command, not whenever it wants to. I for one do not want that to change. BTW, Doug, you've posted here before - you should already know to put [AD] in the subject. Charlie Noah Charles W.
