Hi All,

I have used Compaq Visual Fortran (CVF) for several years. Now I am
using version 6.6. The editor, for fixed format, i.e. 1-6 for comments,
label, etc., 7-72 for body of code, etc. to me is so annoying. The
autoindent doesn't work that well; everytime I need to indent a line, I
still always need to fix it with 'space-bar' key etc etc.

I am just wondering if there is somehing that can be done in this
editor to fix this problem. Somebody might have this problem before?
Any suggestion to fix it?

Does the editor know that the file is fixed-form? As long as you have the preferences set to use spaces (not tab characters), I don't remember the editor being /that/ bad to work with. (I prefer emacs for free-form work, but I don't remember if its fixed form mode works as well.)
