There is a problem in talking to the EPM from the workframe, because by default,
the needed parameter /w isn`t set. Try setting /W as the first parameter in
the Editor... parameter dialog of the workframe. It will then not only jump to
the erroneous line but also color all those lines red.

To get Ctrl-H working, you have to install the toolkit (at least the API docs).
You also have to copy the DDE4.NDX files (don`t know whether it comes with C or
Toolkit) to a directory pointed to by PATH (this is usually done by a
toolkit install procedure, so don`t worry about it).
