Problem in ISPF editor with automatic line break
Hi, I have a problem with the ISPF editor. When I paste a series of numbers in a column, the first one puts it where I want, the second one puts it all the way to the left outside the edit area, not under the one I pasted. The attached image explains the problem. Does anyone know what option I'm doing wrong?

The source text you have copied from an unknown place includes TAB characters X'05' as field separators rather than simple space (blank) X'40' characters.

Hi, I tried to copy the data from:
excel
notepad
other ispf editor
The result is always the same.

Try first to paste the same text into Word editor, and turn on "show special characters" flag. You will see what you are trying to paste.

Re: Problem in ISPF editor with automatic line break
Hi, I understand what you mean, I also tried with other data, loaded from another member of a zos library, and the result is the same, there is no special character at the end.
I made my colleagues do the same actions with the same data, and it does this only to me, they have no problems.
The problem is not the data that I load, but this anomalous behavior of the ISPF editor.

Re: Problem in ISPF editor with automatic line break
if it works for your colleagues then the statement
is useless
check your ispf preferences ( option 0 )
and compare them to one set that works

Hi everyone, we didn't understand the origin of the problem, solved only by reinstalling the personal communication.
Thanks to everyone for the support.

Re: Problem in ISPF editor with automatic line break
One option might be: the flag in ISPF settings:
"_ Tab to point-and-shoot fields"
"_ Tab to point-and-shoot fields"

Re: Problem in ISPF editor with automatic line break
Hi, we also checked all the ISPF settings, they were identical to those who did not have the problem. As I wrote we solved it by reinstalling the personal communication. If the problem was in the ISPF settings or something else under z/OS it would have reappeared, which did not happen.
Thanks to everyone!
Thanks to everyone!
