It's absolutely not necessary to use any particular case when writing code in VFP. It's just a matter of preference. Also, you can type without any formatting whatsoever and then use Tools/Beautify to format it the way you like it with indents, upper/lower/mixed case etc.

>Isn't it a real pain to type VFP reserved words in upper case? Is it necessary, especially with syntax highlighting in the editor? I know one thing--it's sure hard to read (unless you're used to it, of course). And I can't think of any other language that uses upper case so much except COBOL.
