Re: vim not finding the end of the sql statement

Hi David

I'm new to vim and open source software so still feeling around about where to post questions and find answers - Stack Overflow has been a real revelation for me over the past 18 mths so I sort of live my coding life through that portal but I will switch my vim questions to this group.

I'll use one of the visual modes for the time-being.
