    Yeah the same here. Then I realised that .Net is just too stressful and boring and I earn just as much cash doing web sites so I've chucked out the PC and bought a Mac so I get command line, decent applications and some web work

    Use text replacement of the BEGIN and END statements into "{" and "}".

    Then put it into Eclipse or Developer Studio, they allow you to open/collapse code blocks.

    I know, I know. I sometimes ask myself why I'm not an Emacs enthusiast. But I'm not.

    No, but since you've eXcluded all the irrelevant lines, the structure is clear at a glance. If it was anybody but IBM, they'd have copyrighted the look and feel of X ALL, it's so powerful.
