Line Numbers - 02/24/15 02:51 PM

I recently copied a Caesar file over to a new directory and the line numbers in the system did not copy. Changes and modifications have been made to the new file, so i don't want to start over. Is there a way to transfer the line numbers from one file to the next?

Line numbers are stored in *.c2db file. Maybe you didn't copy it.

You want to copy the line numbers from a file to a modified file? I'm not sure if Caesar has the utility for that. And I wouldn't mess with the SQLite database unless I absolutely have to. But I'm guessing that your best bet is to just use Line Numbers list input and manually change it to be safe.

I was able to copy the C2DB file from anaother Caesar file to the one I was working on. After I closed the file and reopened it the Line number were there. At least I don't have to re-input them, There were close to
80-90 lines.

The "c2db" is supposed to be zipped up into the "c 2" archive. This way when you copy an archive, it is complete.

Richard, I find that it's not always the case that .c2db files are zipped into the ".c 2" archive.

I'm using Version 7.00.00.2800 and this is what I've noticed. When I switched files from the Input Processor, the .c2db is not zipped.
Say I have two C 2 files, XX and YY. I open the input of XX, and from the input processor, I then open YY. XX will be zipped into XX.C 2, but XX.c2db is left out.
However, the .c2db is properly zipped when I switch files from Caesar main window (C 2.exe), or when I close Caesar entirely.

Ok thank you. We'll take a look at this. I'm wondering if this is a timing problem, because the exact same routine is used to perform the "zipping" action from all locations in the software where this action is needed.
