What is the best way to copy code from sqlteam.com to qa when the original poster used the code tags? When I do it, the formatting is lost . . .

If you use the "Reply with quote" option, the code will appear in the text box with a normal format. Copy it out from the box and cancel your reply.

You're not alone on that one! :)

Sometime back the CR-LF was replaced with just LF to be *nix compatible. Many MS programs don't do well with just LF codes. You can get around it by pasting to Wordpad and saving as text, Wordpad is smart enough to do LF line breaks.

IMHO this was a case of shifting a problem from the smaller user base to the larger user base in the name of cross-system compatibility
