Indentation in VS 2003

How do I change the indentation in the VS 2003 editor. Its currently 4
spaces, I'd like to make it 3 characters?
How does this work? If someone else opens my project will they see the code
reflecting my indentation setting or their own?
Thanks.

Well, to change the setting go to Tools --> Options. Then select the node
"Text Editor/C#/Tabs".

Now, your other question. If the indentation is based on tabs, I think that
the other persons settings would take affect, meaning if they have their set
to, oh say 20, then that will be what they see. If you have spaces
inserted, then that is probably what the other users will see. So really it
depends on whether you use tabs or spaces.
