formatting code

My teacher said that i should go to
Tools → Options → Text Editor → C/C++ → Tabs

put 4 in for "Tab size", and 4 in for "Indent size" If you pick 4, then you should select "Keep tabs". I think he also said that VS will line up the code when it saves.
My code is formatted horribly. Do i have to do this by hand?

Code:

bool list::remove (const char * const name)
{
	
	//search for the data to be removed
	node * prev = NULL;
	node * curr = headByName;
	while (curr)
	{
		
	
		if(strcmp(curr->item.getName(), name) == 0)
		{
			//remove the data
			if(!prev)
				headByName = curr->nextByName;
			else
				prev->nextByName = curr->nextByName;
			delete curr;
		  return true;
		
		}

		prev = curr;
		curr = curr->nextByName;
	}
        return false;



}

to something like:

Code:

bool list::remove (const char * const name)
{
	
	//search for the data to be removed
	node * prev = NULL;
	node * curr = headByName;
	while (curr)
	{
	  if(strcmp(curr->item.getName(), name) == 0)
	  {
		if(!prev)
		headByName = curr->nextByName;
		else
		prev->nextByName = curr->nextByName;
		delete curr;
		return true;
	  }

		prev = curr;
		curr = curr->nextByName;
	}
	        return false;



}

It probably won't change what's already there, no. There might be a "Re-indent" feature in Visual Studio but I don't know where it is.

4 for tab size, using *spaces*, for four tabs.

And it's...Ctrl-A to select all, then Ctrl-K,Ctrl-F to Format Selection in VS.

Amazing....
