As most of you would know, when you save a view in MYSQL and then retrieve it later, it's all in native MYSQL, looks terrible - no line spaces, indents, plenty of UTF encoding tags littered around the place making your code look like sql soup.

Does anyone have a program or recommend a plugin to netbeans that i can use to format this sql. Here's my view, give formatting it a go and repost it as an example if you like :)

    /* ALGORITHM=UNDEFINED */ SELECT `e`.`Australia` AS `audit_anps`,`e`.`audit_end_date` AS `audit_auditenddate`,`e`.`BumperIssueDates` AS `audit_bumperissuedates`,`e`.`BumperIssuesLinked` AS `audit_bumperissuelinked`,`e`.`BumperIssues` AS `audit_bumperissues`,`e`.`bundledSales` AS `audit_bundledsales`,`e`.`CoverPrice` AS `audit_coverprice`,`e`.`CoverPrice2` AS `audit_coverprice2`,`e`.`CoverPrice2Day` AS `audit_coverprice2day`,`e`.`CoverPrice3` AS `audit_coverprice3`,`e`.`CoverPrice3Day` AS `audit_coverprice3day`,`e`.`CoverPrice4` AS `audit_coverprice4`,`e`.`CoverPrice4Day` AS `audit_coverprice4day`,`e`.`CoverPriceDay` AS `audit_coverpriceday`,`e`.`timestamp` AS `audit_datecreated`,`e`.`weeksbetween` AS `audit_daysbetween`,_utf8'' AS `audit_dayspublished`,`e`.`AustraliaDigital` AS `audit_digital_anps`,`e`.`BumperIssueDatesD` AS `audit_digital_bumperissuedates`,`e`.`BumperIssuesD` AS `audit_digital_bumperissues`,`e`.`BumperIssuesLinkedD` AS `audit_digital_bumperissueslinked`,`e`.`bundledSalesDigital` AS `audit_digital_bundledsalesdigital`,`e`.`CoverPriceD` AS `audit_digital_coverprice`,`e`.`CoverPrice2D` AS `audit_digital_coverprice2`,`e`.`CoverPrice2DayD` AS `audit_digital_coverprice2day`,`e`.`CoverPrice3D` AS `audit_digital_coverprice3`,`e`.`CoverPrice3DayD` AS `audit_digital_coverprice3day`,`e`.`CoverPrice4D` AS `audit_digital_coverprice4`,`e`.`CoverPrice4DayD` AS `audit_digital_coverprice4day`,`e`.`CoverPriceDayD` AS `audit_digital_coverpriceday`,`e`.`ExcludedDatesD` AS `audit_digital_excludeddates`,`e`.`inclAccomAirlinesSalesDigital` AS `audit_digital_inclaccomairlinesales`,`e`.`inclEducationalSalesDigital` AS `audit_digital_incleducationalsales`,`e`.`inclEventSalesDigital` AS `audit_digital_incleventsales`,`e`.`inclMultiplePublicationSalesDigital` AS `audit_digital_inclmultiplepublicationsales`,`e`.`IssuesD` AS `audit_digital_issues`,`e`.`IssuesAuditedD` AS `audit_digital_issuesaudited`,`e`.`NonPublishingDatesD` AS `audit_digital_nonpublishingdates`,`e`.`RemarksD` AS `audit_digital_remarks`,`e`.`exclAustraliaOther` AS `audit_exclaustraliaother`,`e`.`exclInExcess` AS `audit_exclinexcess`,`e`.`ExcludedDates` AS `audit_excludeddates`,`e`.`Exclusions` AS `audit_exclusions`,`e`.`FrequencyID` AS `audit_frequencyid`,`e`.`inclAccomAirlineSales` AS `audit_inclaccomairlinesales`,`e`.`inclEducationalSales` AS `audit_incleducationalsales`,`e`.`inclEventSales` AS `audit_incleventsales`,`e`.`inclMultiplePublicationSales` AS `audit_inclmultiplepublicationsales`,`e`.`InExcess` AS `audit_inexcess`,`e`.`Issues` AS `audit_issues`,`e`.`IssuesAudited` AS `audit_issuesaudited`,`e`.`NimsAvCopiesDelivered` AS `audit_nimaveragecopiesdelivered`,`e`.`NimsAvCopiesMailed` AS `audit_nimaveragecopiesmailed`,`e`.`NimsAvCopiesPrinted` AS `audit_nimaveragecopiesprinted`,`e`.`NIMCopiesDelivered` AS `audit_nimcopiesdelivered`,`e`.`NIMCopiesMailed` AS `audit_nimcopiesmailed`,`e`.`NIMCopiesPrinted` AS `audit_nimcopiesprinted`,`e`.`NonPublishingDates` AS `audit_nonpublishingdates`,`e`.`NZInExcess` AS `audit_nzinexcess`,`e`.`NewZealand` AS `audit_nznps`,`e`.`OCInExcess` AS `audit_ocinexcess`,`e`.`OSMoney` AS `audit_osmoney`,`e`.`OtherCountries` AS `audit_othercountries`,_utf8'' AS `audit_parentpublication`,`e`.`AuditPeriod` AS `audit_period`,`e`.`periodAdjustment` AS `audit_periodadjustment`,`e`.`periodAdjustmentValue` AS `audit_periodadjustmentvalue`,_utf8'' AS `audit_periodenddate`,_utf8'' AS `audit_periodstartdate`,`e`.`PubID` AS `audit_pubid`,`e`.`comments` AS `audit_remarks`,`e`.`SpecialPublishingDay` AS `audit_specialpublishingday`,`e`.`stageid` AS `audit_stageid`,`e`.`totalIssuesAudited` AS `audit_totalissuesaudited`,`e`.`lAuditType` AS `audit_type`,`e`.`iYear` AS `audit_year`,`e`.`AuditorEmail` AS `deprecated_AuditorEmail`,`e`.`AuditorName` AS `deprecated_AuditorName`,`e`.`dateAuditorApproved` AS `deprecated_dateAuditorApproved`,`e`.`dateSignatoryApproved` AS `deprecated_dateSignatoryApproved`,`e`.`dateSubmitted` AS `deprecated_dateSubmitted`,`e`.`DayPublished` AS `deprecated_dayspublished`,`e`.`FirstSignatoryEmail` AS `deprecated_FirstSignatoryEmail`,`e`.`FirstSignatoryName` AS `deprecated_FirstSignatoryName`,`e`.`FormStatus` AS `deprecated_FormStatus`,`e`.`lodgementstatus` AS `deprecated_lodgementstatus`,`e`.`lodgementtype` AS `deprecated_lodgementtype`,`e`.`nPeriod` AS `deprecated_nPeriod`,`e`.`nYear` AS `deprecated_nYear`,`e`.`s2complete` AS `deprecated_s2complete`,`e`.`s3complete` AS `deprecated_s3complete`,`e`.`SecondSignatoryEmail` AS `deprecated_SecondSignatoryEmail`,`e`.`SecondSignatoryName` AS `deprecated_SecondSignatoryName`

Ugly, right? Whenever I use code formatting in Netbeans, or in Heidi SQL all it does it put each section (FROM/WHERE/LIMIT/SELECT) on a new line. This is no good because my select statement is so long. I need something that will at the very least put each select field on a new line.

Can You help me?

Thank you.

A: 

I use squirrel SQL.

The application itself is a bit hard for me to use over heidi sql (which i swear by) but heidi's sql formatting functionality lack the superiority of squirrel

http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/

It can format a view's horrible code perfectly and without a fuss.
