Hi,

After writing my COBOL code, I used the command NUM ON STD to align the COBOL coding. The lines were not aligned. And, when I re-opened the member, this message comes:

Code: Select all

Profile changed to NUMBER OFF (from NUMBER ON STD) 
Data does not have valid standard numbers.

Please let me know, what is the purpose of NUM ON STD and what is the command to align the COBOL coding in a single go?

Sugest you talk with a person working with you with more editing experience.

Those messages say you do not have standard numbers for the member.

What kind of alignment were you expecting? If you want indentation, basically you provide this your self . . .
