Have you changed the settings for the LPEX editor to "act" like SEU by
chance???

Thanks,

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Question about LPEX Editor behavior


The behavior of my LPEX editor seems to have changed, and I'm missing
something on how to change it back.

Suppose I have accidentally pressed the Enter key and split a line as
follows:

000001          01  WS-MY-VARIABLE
000002                -NAME              PIC X(10).

What I'd like to do is using my backspace key or delete key to remove the
spaces between VARIABLE and -NAME to put the line back together again.

Now, however, if I position my cursor in front of the -NAME, I can backspace
to the beginning of the line but no further. It gets to this point and
stops:

000001          01  WS-MY-VARIABLE
000002-NAME             PIC X(10).

Pressing backspace does nothing else. Nor does placing the cursor after
WS-MY-VARIABLE  and pressing the delete key bring the line back together.
Basically, I have to cut and paste, which takes me longer and is annoying.

I'm pretty sure I remember being able to bring lines back together with my
backspace or delete keys. What did I do to change the editor behavior? How
can I change it so my backspace or delete keys will bring two lines
together?

Also, I have gone to Window > Preferences > Remote Systems > iSeries > LPEX
Editor Parsers > COBOL a couple of times now and made sure the automatic
syntax checking box was unchecked. I definitely checked the Apply button.
I've even restarted WDSCi and my PC to make sure changes took effect (though
this should really have nothing to do with it). Yet, I still messages
popping up regarding syntax while I code.  For example, if I split a line, I
might see this:
