When QA returns SP syntax errors it cites line numbers relative to the procedure start. This is great, but QA lists the absolute line number in the status line. I don't see a relative line number anywhere.

I've been counting manually from procedure start to find errors.

Is there a convenient way to locate the faulty line?

If you have batches in QA (separated by the word GO), errors are reported via the line number of the batch. You might consider changing to a stored procedure where the go isn't allowed.

Double click on the error message and as if my magic you are transported to the error


or Ctrl+G and enter line number

Jasper,

Thanks for that magic trick. It's well hidden behind plain text.
