The best way to post source code

rogerpence — Thu, 08 May 2008 12:08:48 GMT

Which code you prefer to read? This...

BegSr button1_Click Access(*Private) Event(*this.button1.Click)

DclSrParm sender *Object

DclSrParm e System.EventArgs

Connect pgmDB

DclFld Status Type( *Integer4 )

Status = ClearMember( pgmDB, "Membership", "[User]", "*First" )

If ( Status = dgErrorNumber.dgEOK )

MsgBox "File cleared successfully."

Else

MsgBox "Error code encountered: " + Status.ToString()

EndIf

Disconnect pgmDB

EndSr

Or this...

    BegSr button1_Click Access(*Private) Event(*this.button1.Click)
        DclSrParm sender *Object
        DclSrParm e System.EventArgs
 
        Connect pgmDB 
 
        DclFld Status Type( *Integer4 ) 
 
        Status = ClearMember( pgmDB, "Membership", "[User]", "*First" ) 
        If ( Status = dgErrorNumber.dgEOK ) 
            MsgBox "File cleared successfully."
        Else
            MsgBox "Error code encountered: " + Status.ToString()
        EndIf
 
        Disconnect pgmDB 
    EndSr        

To get the latter result, download a free copy of the CopySourceAsHtml utility and use its "Copy as HTML" option to paste code from Visual Studio to our forum.

While we can't enforce the use of utility, the quality of post responses will be directly proportionate to the readability of the code you post!

Forum Guidelines

Administrator — Fri, 02 May 2008 11:52:49 GMT

1. We may change the subject of a question or comment--especially if we feel like it has good content and we want others to find it easily.

2. We try to responsive to your questions here, but sometimes a question will slip through the cracks unanswered for too long. If you feel it's been too long, shoot the forum administrator an email.

3. We won't tolerate profanity, flaming, or other generally obnoxious behavior. Who gets to be the judge? We do!
