This was driving me nuts during a recent server migration where Notepad was the most readily available troubleshooting tool – sometimes I’d hit Control-G and a “goto line number:” prompt would appear, and sometimes it wouldn’t.
As it turns out, the Goto command in Notepad is only enabled when word wrap is turned off.
Ah. Better.

Thanks Dear, Very Good answer and logical.
Spot on, I would never have thought of trying that.
It’s been driving me nuts for the last few days.
Thanks
I’m in notepad – trying to resolve typo errors – I have word wrap turned off and I do get a place to put the line number for the error – but it comes back with out of range when I enter the number.
