I made no statement as to which I prefer (I'm happy with either) - but feel free to argue with those who prefer a different style. I simply suggested that most replies seemed to favour the tabbed layout and *consistency* in a code base is a more important than personal preference.
A far as VFP goes most issues like this can be resolved by common 'beautify' settings.
