In either case, it is perfectly clear what the expression is doing. Sticking with fixed format, I'd write my second example this way:

But why on earth would you _want_ to stick with the old IFEQ type stuff? This thread has already demonstrated the inadequacies of the old style of coding. Using expressions doesn't require using /Free it can be coded in fixed form if someone is forced to stick with fixed.

e.g.

IF ( (A = B) or (C = D) )

Is perfectly valid in fixed form - so why not use it and avoid any possibility of ambiguity or misinterpretation?
