I have WINDOWS 2000 PROFESSIONAL with WORDPAD V.50 (service pack 4) software. Is there an upgrade or utility that can provide me (the line number and character position) within a file where my mouse cursor is pointing? For example: I open a raw data file into WORDPAD containing 10 records. I place my mouse cursor on the last line of the file right after the first character in the row can the status bar denote (the line number 10 and position 1 of the line)? I have seen someone with Windows XP have this capablity I was wondering if there was an upgrade or an added utility to get me this flexibility. Thanks in advance...

Download and install some freeware editor like Context ( it offers far more features and is better equiped then WordPad in these cases. For RTF editing keep up with WordPad though
