IMS Text Editor

Visual Studio offers an IMS text editor that supports DBD, MFS, and PSB files. Features include:

Compile the IMS source

To compile the currently opened IMS file, use the Compile context menu command in the editor.

Insert or remove line numbers (Renumber and Unnumber)

The editor supports the standard numbering - line numbers are inserted immediately to the right of the code area, in columns 73 - 80, starting by default at 00001000 at the first line, incrementing by 1000 by default.

To insert line numbers:

Click Edit > Advanced> Renumber right.

To remove the line numbers:

Click Edit > Advanced> Unnumber right.
