Chris,
I am ALLL about the white space:
SELECT
t1.id,
t1.name
(
ISNULL( t1.foo, '' )
) AS foo
FROM
table1 t1
INNER JOIN
table2 t2
ON
(
t1.fid = t2.id
AND
t2.date_createdd IS NOT NULL
AND
t2.id IN
(
SELECT
b.id
FROM
bar b
)
)
WHERE
t1.id IN ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 )
AND
(
1 = 0
OR
(t1.id % 2) = 1
)
ORDER BY
t1.id ASC,
t2.id ASC
Maybe this is totally crazy, but to me the indentation makes it look
VERY OBVIOUS. Granted I am used to reading it but it is super easy for
me to look at it and see how things are related (grouped together with
parens, AND'ed OR'ed, sub query , etc).

Subject: Formatting your SQL Statements
I just want a quick 'style survey' on how folks key in SQL inside of CF.
Do you use a lot of white space for easy readability, or do you cram
everything onto 1 line with no aliased tables for streamlined
efficiency? For example, here is one of mine:
