I am just starting to use CODE/400 (after all the rave reviews :-), and yesterday I ran into a couple of problem that the "help" didn't seem to be much help with. First, I was attempting to "indent" my source code, but nothing seemed to happen. After a while, I figured out that I seemed to have two different views open -- one that said "indented" and one that didn't, but neither one was indented. They were both full-screen. I had tried the indent feature before on the same file, and it seemed to work fine, although the indented view showed up at the bottom of the regular view's screen. Anyway, this time I tried various things, including selecting "indent" over and over again, and when nothing seemed to work I gave up and tried to exit the file. At this point, I got an error message: "Cannot exit the edit session - a dialog is currently open in the editor". I couldn't close either view -- regular or indented -- and I couldn't figure out what "dialog" the program thought I was having. I finally ended up simply killing the session, and back on the AS/400 I had to kill a couple of jobs that had locked the source member, but after I did that everything appeared to be fine. So I have two questions: 1) Is there some trick to using Indent? If it doesn't seem to work, are there things I can check to figure out why? 2) Is there a better way to recover from the "cannot exit" message? Is there a way to find out what the program thinks is going on and tell it to stop? Thanks very much!
