Access 2003 SQL View Loses White Space Changes

Hello,

Is there a way to configure Access so SQL View saves white space changes to a query? By white space changes I mean tabs, spaces and carriage returns added to make the query more readable in SQL view.

For instance:

When I'm editing a complex query in Access, I space it out nicely like:

SELECT ((field1 * field2) + (field2 * field3)) / field4 AS [Weighted Avg]

FROM table1, table2, table3

WHERE table1.field = 'xxx'

or something similar, with spaces between fields, parenthesis, and carriage returns or tabs in between major blocks of logic to increase readability. It's simplified above but I hope you get the point.

When I save it and return to SQL View later, Access compacts the query to:

SELECT((field1*field2)+(field2*field3))/field4 AS [Weighted Avg]
FROM table1,table2,table3
WHERE table1.field='xxx'

The above example isn't so bad, but with multipe selects, joins and mathematical calculations using parenthesis, it becomes really unreadable after Access "compacts" it.

Any way to change this lovely "feature" ?

Thanks,
