Sergey,

I simply ran the Beautify option from the tools menu. Blank out all the settings and run it with a breakpoint set. Then set the options and repeat. This helps you figure out what they mean, etc. But even if I use a "fake" set of options that I gleaned via this method, I still can't figure out where to go to get the nicely formatted code.

Any ideas? No one in the world seems to know either....

Thanks,

Fletcher
