Tidy Code softwareI've been asked to modify a rather large piece of code, (12000 lines in
all) It's been written with everything on the left margin. There used to be a piece of software to make the code more readable, including putting vertical lines on the printout from start to finish of a routine whether it be sub, for/next while, etc Not seen it for many years, Cant remember what it was/is called, but would like to find it? Or another FREE package? Regards -- Kevin Have a look at: http://www.bmsltd.ie/Indenter/Default.htm
It'll sort the code out in VB, though does nothing for printouts. It is, however, free.

Thanks for that, It's certainly made the code more readable. A very useful utility program... However I would still like to know, if anyone out there knows of it, what the software was that used to put lines from top of procedure to bottom of procedure etc.....

Sadly, can't afford it because I'm doing this as a favour and it's a big expense for a hobby GRIN... I am still looking for a free one if there is such a thing.

Benefits to me will be I will be able to read it.... either on screen or on paper. The current code is everything on the left column. Makes it hard to find that that needs finding. There are no comment, No variable descriptions the code is a nightmare. I believe about three untrained programmers have already been messing and made no comments either. No documents or anything. My sanity would be helped by the software..
