Hi, Mike -

You have to take any "~r~n" and "~t" sequences into account when examining the DW source in a text editor.

Here's an example where I edited source and intentionally changed the syntax to something incorrect:

When I attempt to save from the source editor, I get the following (expected) error:

This is exactly where the editor cursor is located in the above snapshot... after "texxt".

This text DWObject is a two-line column label. It contains a "~r~n" sequence immediately after "Barcode Data" on source line 11, so this is why the editor places the remainder of source line 11 on editor line 12... the editor line beginning with "(Limit: 40 Characters)".

If I correct "texxt" to "text" and Save, I get a second error:

This error is caused by the misspelling of the keyword "color" as "colour". The "~r~n" sequence in the text label makes it appear in the editor that the error is in line 12, but syntactically, the error actually is in source line 11.

The same issue occurs to a slightly lesser degree with tab characters ("~t"). Tabs can artificially inflate the column number.

I obviously do not have a fix for this issue, but I hope it helps explain the apparent discrepancy.

Best regards, John
