For some unknown reason this code
Code:

DECLARE @ma date = CAST(GETDATE() AS date);


becomes
Code:

DECLARE @ma date = .CAST(GETDATE() AS date);


after formatting. It gets a surplus period in front of CAST.

Just formatting that line here does not exhibit this issue. Perhaps it's a formatting rule you have in place?

I'm guessing that somewhere in a custom formatting rule you got 4 dots in place of 3 dots wildcard.

I've thought about that but there are only two consecutive 4-dot combos in the entire sqlassist.sas file. Both are snippet captions, one for MariaDB and the other one for MySQL. The affected formatting is SQL Server. It's been quite a while since I last did major stuff in SQL Server so I'm reasonably certain I didn't change anything in formatting rules recently. I'm not sure but I guess this started after I upgraded to v12.1.

UPDATE: culprit found. I've got a formatting rule for DECLARE
Code:

DECLARE @... ... = ...;


I changed it to
Code:

DECLARE @... = ...;

and does not ruin the code anymore, but I have a vague recollection of having a very good reason for putting that middle set of 3-dots there. Alas, I no longer remember what it was. I'm afraid I'll be enlightened very soon.
