You can use the settings in
Tools > Options > Text Editor > Micro Focus COBOL, and on the
Line Numbering page to configure the options for auto-inserting COBOL line numbers.
You can set the following options in the IDE for auto-inserting line numbers in your source code:
- COBOL (left-hand margin)
- Numbers run down the left-hand side of the source.
- Line numbers increment (1 - 1000)
- Specify the increment for the COBOL line numbers.
- Standard (right-hand margin)
- Numbers run down the right--hand side of the source.
- Line numbers increment (1 - 1000)
- Specify the increment for the standard line numbers.
- Show warning dialog when source format is Free or Variable
- Enables a warning when the source code is not in fixed source format. This dialog is displayed when your source files use a free or variable source format and there might be valid code in the areas where renumbering and unnumbering insert or remove numbers.
