  • Microsoft Fortran PowerStation for Windows 95 and Windows NT, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

In the Developer Studio editor, hanging indents beyond column 7 are not preserved when editing fixed-form source code files. This does not occur when editing free-form source code files.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Problem

  1. From the Developer Studio Tools menu, choose Options. Click the Tabs folder, and set the auto-indent option to Default.

  2. Create a new text file, and save it with the .for file extension.

  3. Type in a new line of text in any column beyond column 7, and press the ENTER key. This will position the cursor in the same starting column on the next line.

  4. Type some text on the new line to move the cursor back to column 7.
