We are selling our house as a short sale. Does anyone know how badly that will affect our credit?

This is probably not a typical short sale. We are not behind in our payments and the lender has not agreed to come to us for any balance due. There will also be on the list this credit as satifactory paid as agreed. I heard that doing a short sale thus not affect our credit but again I have said dramaticaly wll affect it. Does anyone really knows or can give me an idea.
