Tab and Shift Tab will do that   Another cool trick is holding down ALT when you select text  it will allow you to make a square selection   Starting with VS2010  you can start typing and it will replace the contents of your square selection with what you type   Absolutely awesome for changing a bunch of lines at once

Ctrl-K  Ctrl-D      Will just prettify the entire document  Saves a lot of messing about    compared to delphi    Make sure to remove all indents by first selecting everything with Ctrl A then press Shift Tab  repeatedly until everything is aligned to the left  After you do that  Ctrl K  Ctrl D  will work the way you want them to   You could also do the same but only to a selection of code by highlighting the block of code you want to realign  aligning it to the left side  Shift Tab  and then after making sure you ve selected the code you want to realign press Ctrl K  Ctrl F or just right click the highlighted code and select  Format Selection
