Problem:

Can the same source file be opened in multiple windows for an IDE Edit session?

Resolution:

  Yes. There are two methods:

1) - go to File>Open, select the source file you want to edit

    - notice along the right side of the open window there is a slider, up and down

      arrows, and a small slider above the up arrow

    - move the slider above the up arrow down

    - notice that the same file is being displayed twice in the same window,

      this is helpful when viewing a Working Storage item and looking at a

      Procedure Division statement referencing that item

2) - go to File>Open, select the source file you want to edit

    - go to Window>New Window

    - a new window is opened for the same source file but the title bar has an

      identifier -> "  pgmname.cbl:n " where 'n' is the instance number of open windows
