Arron & Mark,

Unfortunately, case-sensitivity was something we missed for RPG
content-assist in WDSc 5.0.  After reading your reply, I tried a couple
things in my dev driver to be more respectful of case.  Basically, during
the completion processing, I put in code to detect the case around the
cursor, and, based on the case, completions use either caps or lowercase.
This won't yet deal with mixed case, but should hopefully resolve most
annoyances.   We'll get this into an update (or whatever it's called now)
soon.

By the way, great suggestions - keep them coming!

<Mark>
I had always noticed these two features, but not until today did I put
them together.  If you have the outline view populated, then you get very
nice code completion in the editor on everything.  Such as field name
completions on an EVAL or file/format names on a CHAIN.  For fields, it
even tells you the type and length.

Very nice!

I just got WDSc 5.0 installed and also like that feature. . . except. . .
it
doesn't retain the case that I used on my variable when I declared it!!!!
Please tell me there is a setting to change this to retain the case of my
variables for the code completion portion.  If not this piece is useless to
me.  Who codes in all caps anymore??

AARON BARTELL oops, I mean Aaron Bartell;-)
