    <p>This is driving me round the bend. I'm a long time <code>VB.NET</code> forms developer, quite new to <code>ASP.NET</code> and completely new to <code>MVC</code>. I'm creating <code>vbhtml</code> pages that use the <code>VB.NET Razor</code> syntax, and I seem to be constantly fighting against the <code>UI</code> which is trying to indent my code incorrectly. Take the following example, based on the template page for a new <code>Razor</code> view:</p> <pre><code>@Code Layout = Nothing End Code &lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div&gt; @If True Then @&lt;ul&gt; @For x = 1 To 2 Next &lt;/ul&gt; End If '&lt;-- Randomly indented too far &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>In the above example, as soon as I hit return after <code>Next</code>, <code>End If</code> two lines below randomly jumps two tabs forward from where it should be. In other examples I've hit a circle where pushing one line to the correct place throws another line out of position and vice versa.</p> <p>I'm so annoyed at this point I'd be happy to disable auto-indentation completely and just manage it myself, but I can't even find out how to do that! Following advice on another thread I disabled indentation for <code>HTML</code> pages but all that stops is indentation of <code>HTML</code> tags - the code blocks still slide around all over the place.</p> <p>I thought an extension might be causing the problem but I disabled them all and restarted and the problem remains. Am I doing something fundamentally wrong? I find it hard to believe <code>Microsoft</code> would release something so poor so it seems more likely I'm just not using it right.</p>

    1. COI think you can use "Format the whole document" option which is part of "HTML source editing" tool in visual studio. Alternately you can use command (Ctrl+E, D) on regular basis to format the document.

    2. CO@Pramodtech: In my environemt, Ctrl+E, D brings up the "Add existing file" dialog, but I tried Ctrl+K, D which does seem to format the whole document. Trouble is, it garbles the document even worse than it was before. It seems like MS have a serious bug in the auto-indentation of vbhtml which I find really surprising given how polished VS is generally.

    3. CO@wwarby It's not just VB, it affect C# too, which makes it all the more stupifying that it's not yet been addressed.

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
