I am new on this forum, so hello from me to everybody reading this.

Here is my question.

When i use the load image command in some code, and i then execute the code, something seems to happen what i do not understand. When i go back to the editor{the editor which came with the software) some of my code has gone missing. I don't know if this is a problem with my computer or what could be causing this to happen. I can't remember noticing this happening before.

regards,

Step 1 is to ditch the standard editor and use one of the alternatives. Check out the Program Announcements forum for details.

Yeah. The noraml editor is rubbish.
I have the same problem.
It normally only happens when I type something in without being in a project.

The only alternative for DBC's editor I know is Darkedit, so try and search for that. It's windowed, and a big improvement over the standard one.

Its not a bug, its a feature!

You could also try Codekeeper by Danny Wartnaby.
You may be able to get it in the showcase, if not google gave this link

I must be the only person who prefers the defult editor.

Yeah I use DarkEdit which is a great syntax highlight editor. I was using the regular IDE but I didn't like it then my friend LordDario told me about DarkEdit. WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT!
