Thanks Bob, Alt-l and Alt-c have been my friends since learning how to use WDSc V5.
I have a problem with your step number 3: Go to where you want

I'm working on an RPG member with 18000 lines and I have modifications to make in several sub-procedures. When I analysed the code, I put bookmarks in thinking that would help. At each line of modified code, I have to enter a standard line indicating the beginning of the modification and another for the end. So, during modification which was rather simple, I wanted to insert my modifications then copy the standard line and go to the next bookmark for the next modification. This highlights the bookmark line so alt-c no longer works.

I've tried using code snippets for the standard line, but found that a bit tedious as I have to change the date and project numbers in the snippet each time.

I'll try ctrl -C and ctrl -V but that means selecting the right column. Just thought there might be a neat way.
