 * }

Q86818

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Programmer's Workbench for MS-DOS, versions 2.0, 2.1.49

-

SYMPTOMS
Under Programmer's WorkBench version 2.0, which is supplied with Microsoft C/C++ 7.0, a very large number may be displayed in the lower right corner of the screen when opening a file.

CAUSE
If you choose Open from the File menu, and you enter a non-existent file, a dialog box will be displayed asking if the file should be created. While the dialog box is being displayed, a very large line number will be displayed in the lower right corner of the screen.

RESOLUTION
The line number display returns to normal after the &quot;File does not exist!&quot; dialog box disappears. The large line number that is temporarily displayed does no harm.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PWB versions 2.0 and 2.1.49. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
