    How can you make VS2010 create a block after an if or for statement? I would like it to automatically add the braces with an indented line between them after I type a block statement if the last character on the line was a ")". So: if (this == true) would become when the [ENTER] key was pressed: if (this == true) { (cursor here indented however many spaces) } Thanks,

    VB.NET does this automatically I've heard. Which is why VB is supposedly more RAD than C# :rolleyes: C# with the DevEx add-in or Whole Tomatoe does the same though. If you want to go that route.

      Bit of an own-goal there, perhaps?

        He may not have a feminine side, but does he have an off-side?

          What's wrong with: if, tab, tab? Works in VS2005.

            Well, I'll be. Never knew you could do that. Not quite as good as I was hoping, but it definitely works. Thanks.

                  It won't work in VS2012 though. Just because.

                    What is this supposed to do? It doesn't do anything on my system except add two tabs (regardless of what version of VS I use.)

                      Visual Assist does that.
