>>One thing I overlooked (that Larry pointed out) is the lack of indentation. I indent the continuation. I think that as far as placing the operator at the beginning or end of a line is simply a matter of style rather than substance. I think that a case can be made either way.

>I agree. Both are valid. I think the important point is that you should pick one way and always use it unless/until you find a better way. I have some other things along the same line. For example, my current project has lots of code that was written by a well known VFP consulting group. All the comments start with *--. Personnally, I see no reason to use the --. It doesn't make it any more of a comment. It doesn't stand out differently because all the comments are that way. IMO, why use *-- when * will do?

Again, it's a style thing I think. I do completely agree with "picking and sticking". Pick a way to do something and stick to it unless you find a better way. When you do make a change, however, it's not necessary to go through everything and change it. I do it whenever I run into some code that has a style that I've changed. Normally, when I do run into something like this the change is quick and easy and causes no problems.
