line numbering

[Guest]

Hi

I just used Visual C++ to compile a C code. I code a bunch of error messages (mostly syntax errors)
How to get to these errors? Is there any automatic line numbering feature that I can use

Thanks!

You didn't tell us much about your development environment, but as you
posted in a dotnet group, I'll answer in context of the VS.NET IDE.
Select Tools->Options... to display the Options dialog. On the dialog,
select Text Editor, then All Languages (or, the language of your choice).
Put a check in the Line numbers in the Line Numbers checkbox under display.
If you're not using the IDE, check in the display options for your editor.
Most good programmers' editors have a line number display feature.
