{| = PRB: No Line Number in Text Editor Status Bar =
 * width="100%"|

ID: Q99622

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.0, 2.5, and 2.5a
 * Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.5a

SYMPTOMS
Line numbers do not appear in the status bar of the text editor.

CAUSE
The preferences for the editor are set to support word wrapping. When the Word Wrap check box is selected in the Edit Preferences dialog box, FoxPro cannot accurately reflect the line number in relation to the current cursor position. Therefore, it displays only the column number in relation to the current cursor position.

RESOLUTION
1. With the FoxPro Editor active, choose Preferences from the Edit menu.

2. In the Edit Preferences dialog box, clear the Word Wrap check box.
