Yo there... Here is where i need help : I need to find a way to automatically open up the os prgm editor for a defined prgm, right after exiting the application i'm working on. I precise i don't need to return back to the app code after doing so. Also, the idea is to be able to make the cursor point to the location i want. I already have the obj+name and error token address for the concerned prgm. Before you ask, no need to call _jerror cause my app already displays its own error messages. If you know "Axe", this is exactly how i want it to work (when [PRGM] is pressed if an error is encountered). Unfortunately, its creator doesn't answer my call so i hope someone can around here... Thx in advance =]

I actually just fixed that routine recently Maybe Kerm will fix it in DCS too if he didn't already, which I think he might of since that was over a year ago. Anyway, here goes. There are 2 blanks that need to be filled in depending on which program, and where in the program you plan to jump to. Sorry its not commented... Code: EditorExit: ;'HL points to the name of the program to edit'    ld   hl,_Your_Prgm_Name_    ld   de,progToEdit    ld   bc,8    ldir    xor   a    ld   (de),a    ld   a,kPrgmEd    B_CALL(_NewContext) ;'BC should hold the offset you would like to jump to'    ld   bc,_Your_Offset_    ld   de,(editTop)    ld   hl,(editTail)    ldir    ld   (editCursor),de    ld   (editTail),hl    ld   h,b    ld   l,c    push   hl EditorLoop:    ld   de,(editTop)    or   a    sbc   hl,de    jr   z,EditorFound    B_CALL(_BufLeft)    ld   hl,(editCursor)    ld   a,(hl)    cp   tEnter    jr   z,EditorFound    pop   hl    inc   hl    push   hl    jr   EditorLoop EditorFound:    B_CALL(_BufRight)    B_CALL(_DispEOW)    pop   hl    ld   a,h    or   l    jr   z,EditorMon EditorScroll:    dec   hl    ld   a,h    or   l    jr   z,EditorMon    push   hl    B_CALL(_CursorRight)    pop   hl    jr   EditorScroll EditorMon:    res   2,(iy+50)    res   7,(iy+20)    res   3,(iy+5)    B_JUMP(_Mon)

Just tried it. It kinda works, except for 2 things : 1) It seems impossible to make the cursor point to a tenter token. It'll automatically point to the next token instead. 2) It behaves very strangely if there is no tenter token before the inputted offset (in other words, if it's located in the first line of the prgm). I'll try to figure out why...

Oh right, that's because its directly from the Axe source where those effects are what I desire. Remove the "B_CALL(_BufRight)" if you want to be able to put the cursor over a tEnter token. I think this might solve both problems, but I'm not sure. EDIT: Also move the "jr z,EditorFound" to after the pop inc push thing.

While doing some tests, i figured out how the whole thing works so i'm gonna modify it to suit my needs. I actually found a way to avoid both the bufleft and bufright bcalls. Anyway, there's a place for you in my project credits. Thx again =]

Glad you were able to get this resolved, The_Mad_Joob.
