>I work on an app that took over 10 years to reach majurity. I am the 4th or 5th developer to work on it. It is an FPD26 app that is being converted over to VFP8 now. I have had to add variable declarations in the middle of over a thousand of them. I cannot imagine realigning that many pages of them for one single variable. I came as visually close as possible in a reasonable amount of time.
There's another consideration in favor of
not realigning the other stuff. The 'Show differences' in SourceSafe would show too many differences that are in fact insignificant. I don't mind to see 'differences' in
some lines above and below the significantly changed line. But only some of course, not tens or even more.
