HI All,

I am doing code changes to an existing code i.e., I am adding a few lines of code to the existing one.
Now whenever I insert a line somewhere in the middle of the code the rest of the line numbers
get automatically incremented. I don't want this to happen.

Doing a 3.13 to the old and new programs should display only those lines of code that were added
by me, instead it shows all the lines where there is change in the line number.

I have tried AUTONUM OFF, etc but it did not work out.

Thanks and Regards,
Raveendra.

Raveendra,

I did not understand your problem clearly. Which line number are you talking about. The one that appears to the left (columns 1-6) or the ones that appear at the end of member (73-80) ?

To remove seq numbers in first 6 columns (1-6), use the following command.

Hi Phantom !

Here are the details :

The line numbers that I was talking about is from 1-6.

Existing Code :

Code:

001200 MOVE A TO B.
001300 ADD B TO D.
001400 SUB 10 FROM D.
001500 DISPLAY A.
001600 DISPLAY B.
001700 DISPLAY D.

After Changes :

Code:

001200 MOVE A TO B.
001300 ADD B TO D.
001400 ADD A TO D. -----> NEW LINE
001500 SUB 10 FROM D.
001600 DISPLAY A.
001700 DISPLAY B.
001800 DISPLAY D.

The line numbers after the inserted line gets automatically incremented.

I wanted it this way :

Code:

001200 MOVE A TO B.
001300 ADD B TO D.
001300 ADD A TO D. -----> NEW LINE
001400 SUB 10 FROM D.
001500 DISPLAY A.
001600 DISPLAY B.
001700 DISPLAY D.

I was just wondering if we have any other command that I might have
used accidently thats resulting in AUTONUM OFF not working properly.

Please suggest.

Thanks and Regards,
Raveendra.

If all you want to do is be able to compare old and new, you can set up SuperC to just compare between columns 7 and 72 by using the CMPCOLM. This macro does that when it front-ends the editor's built in COMPARE command:

Hi All !!

I am not trying to remove the numbers all together. I am just trying to ensure that they are not incremented.

Hi Phantom ! I was trying to prevent auto increment of line numbers 1-6, but not removing them all together.
Could you please look into this.

Thanks semigeezer for your sample code.

Thanks and Regards,
Raveendra.

To prevent increment, use the NUM OFF command. The editor has a pretty good help system (press F1 while in the editor).
