Hello Naveen,
Type UNNUM in command line . This will blank out the sequence numbers.

You can use a picture string and specify a column range. The following command will change any character in columns 1 to 6 with a blank
For a full list of picture strings, press your help key while editing a file.
Here are some other picture strings that you can use:
[code:1:f658a69a3e]
A picture string is a quoted string that is preceded or followed by the
letter "P". It can contain blanks, alphabetic and numeric characters
which represent themselves, or any of the special characters listed
below, each of which represents a class of characters.
= any character . invalid characters
@ alphabetic characters - non-numeric characters
# numeric characters < lower case alphabetics
$ special characters > upper case alphabetics

Naveen,
You can also try typing NUM ON STD COB which will eliminate the line numbers
Hope this helps...
cheers
