You are not wrong, but you don't always get to choose. <rolls eyes> But to be honest I find a subroutine easier to write at first while the program is growing - procedures just make the program look clunky while the thing is small. (FREE-form procedures are not yet available to us.)

Obviously, the problem is that you are writing a brand new SQLRPGLE program and you're still using subroutines! :-)

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Autoformat SQL in RPGLE FREE
Hi,
I'm having a bad time entering a brand new SQLRPGLE program. When I enter an EXEC SQL statement in my RPG (say, for instance, between a begsr; and endsr;) and then press ENTER, (or DOWN, or otherwise try to indicate I want to continue typing on the next line) the SQL autoformatter sucks out all the whitespace between the EXEC SQL and the endsr; and puts them both on the same line. And it keeps doing it after every press of ENTER or DOWN! At least until the SQL statement is complete, anyway. Obviously endsr; is not a valid SQL statement, so I would expect the formatter to not do anything until it can parse the line properly.
Anybody know if there is an option to stop this (turning off the autoformatter is an option, but I'd prefer to keep using it to keep my SQL statements properly formatted.)
Is there a quick way to turn the SQL formatter on and off? So maybe I can turn it off, type a whole statement and turn it back on to format it. Navigating the windows/preferences page for this option isn't ideal.
-Paul.
