Block automatic increment of line numbers !

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.

Please help me...

Thanks and Regards,
Raveendra.

Hi Raveendra,

You have already used the right command - AUTONUM OFF.
It works at my machine. Can you tell us what happens when you try it?

Hi Amit !

Thanks for your prompt reply !

Here is how it works on my machine even after AUTONUM OFF.

Existing Code :

Hi Raveendra,

First set AUTONUM to OFF. Then try giving UNNUM. It will display the line number from 1,2,3...

In both the existing as well as new one give UNNUM and save those files.

Try comparing now and let us know the result from your side.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks iKnow !!!

But unfortunately I cannot 'save' the previous version of the program, as they are run on production. So UNNUM and saving is not possible. They are just comparing the production version and our(after changes) version straight away.

Thanks and Regards,
Raveendra.
