startB. However, there are a couple cases where I stray, such as private string _MyString; public string MyStringProperty { get { return _MyString; } set { _MyString; } } of course, if there is more than 1 line in the get or set I expand it.

startBrace yourself - I use mostly A. I use B if: a. I need readability (eg lots of nested blocks) b. I'm working with someone else's code, and its B. c. I hit enter by mistake. Somtimes I use C. So, in brief ?abc : B, (A || C) Or A before B except after abc. See? Simple really. Once you get the 'hang' of it. In any case, those were my indentions.

B of course - but i don't understand how anyone could mistaxe

"I do" is both the shortest and the longest sentence in the English language.

startWho is the jack--- voting everyone down who says "B" is the best, but won't post a message saying why "A" is better??? I have only seen 1 message in support of A, and it is only partial support. Whoever you are, stop being childish, if you like "A", post a message and say why you like it, just as the rest of us have done! "I'd be up a piece if I hadn't swallowed my bishop."

Indeed, that's what most supporters of style A say as well. Nothing wrong with that, but I still believe that style was from a time long ago, when screens were only 25 lines long, and a lot of code was printed in books, and space was a premium. Just a guess, though. Michael P Butler wrote: From which we all learnt our first steps into C.

Ian Darling "One of the few systems...which has had “no deaths” in the reliability requirements." - Michael Platt
I say 4 spaces, even if for no other reason than that is the default in VC6 and VC.NET. :-O The only times I see 3 spaces being used are when there are groups of 2 spacers and 4 spaces of about equal sizes, so they reach a compromise. :-D "I'd be up a piece if I hadn't swallowed my bishop."

startA of course. Gives me vertical space to separate logical chunks of code, without losing "code density". I only do B for outmost scopes/blocks. -- Meine Welt ist monoton und minimal, doch ganz total!
