I can't get SQL Server 2016 Management Studio to remember that I want line numbers. Every time I open an instance, I have to turn line numbers on, but when I open a new instance, they've been turned off again.
Does anyone know how to make them stay on permanently or whether this is a bug within SSMS?
Even though the answer to this question was already given, i was looking for how to put line numbers on the editor and the answer was not given, so here it is!
Step1: Go to Tools > Options.
Step2: In the Options dialog box navigate to Text Editor > Transact-SQL > General.
Step 3: Check “Line Numbers” and click on “OK” Now, when a query window is opened Line Numbers will be displayed
