Re: Convert selection to free-form

Hi Dave,

Unlike CODE, in Remote Systems LPEX Editor, when you convert, it is done in
place in your member. No new file is opened.
I would note that the conversion provided (in both editor) only performs
conversion which provides truly equivalent code. In some cases, exact
conversion is not possible, and so no conversion occurs.
This sounds like it might have been the case here - although it would have
been nicer if the message issued indicated that the conversion was not able
to convert any lines. I have opened a requirement to address this.

thanks,

I select some fixed-format RPG, right click, and choose Convert Selection

to

Free-Form. It says 'Conversion complete.' Um, where the heck did it put

it? In CODE, a new window opens with the converted code in it so it can

be

saved or copied to wherever it's wanted. This doesn't appear to be so
friendly - or do I have one of the zillions of settings wrong someplace?

Thanks.
