I did not find an answer to this on the forum search and some ISPF docs that I have don´t say it. Any idea? I tried 'go to #', 'go #', 'jump #', nothing seems to work...

Hello,

Try this:
In the command area, key "loc nnnn" (without the quotes) and press enter. The nnnn is the line number.

This should let you move forward or backward.

Hi,

You might try, type "XXXX" on the command prompt & press PF7 or PF8. The "XXXX" is the line number. PF7 to go up & PF8 to go down.

The XXXX is the number of lines to move rather than the line number.

remember...

the locate,loc,l behavior is determined by the number setting

using pf7/pf8 with a number in the command line, the scroll will be relative to the current position in the file
