I think I have to agree w/Lou & Dan Covill - about Beautify being more

like Uglify!

I tried your suggestion (which, for the most part, the way you suggested

to run it is how I normally do it) - except I normally do Tabs as the

Indents instead of Spaces. So - I tried Spaces - but, I still got

problems. I then looked down thru the code - and was trying to match up

an Enddo with the Do While WAY Above it - only to find out that things

were NOT line up starting at a particular point in the code. So - I

tried doing some realignment myself - but, it's a BIG program - and it's

a bit of a difficult task! Oh well...

If you have a mixture of tabs and spaces you can get some strange

indentations.

For Keywords: Mixed case,

Symbols: match first occurance

Type of indentation change to spaces and change the number to 3 click

all the 'text to indent', 'extra indent beneath'

Don't highlight any text and this will beautify the entire file.

Subject: Problems Using VFP Beautify...

I tend to use this tool in VFP a good bit - especially since a lot of

the code where I work tends to be REALLY SLOPPY - making it harder to

read.

One of the problems - is that they all make one long code - instead of

making things more procedural. The problem then becomes matching up the

tops and bottoms of loops - when trying to review code and look for a

problem. So - I use Beautify to clean up the Indentation - which then

generally makes it MUCH easier to see Loop structures.

However, the problem I have is that Beautify doesn't always work. So -

even after doing it - I go to the beginning of a Do While - and if I

then scroll directly down in the code - it all generally indents in

farther - then comes back out. Except - instead of an Enddo matching up

with the same indentation - I may find like an Endif.

Anybody know why it doesn't always work right? Is there Bugs in

Beautify?

Thanks,
