    I think it's under the Text Editor section of the Options dialog, should be a checkbox there somewhere.

    Here's another approach

    1. Hit the F1 key
    2. Stretch your knuckles and prepare yourself mentally and physically, you're gonna do some typing...
    3. Type the following "line numbers" (without the quotes)
    4. Press the Return key
    5. Watch and be amazed as your computer does stuff that you only ever dreamed of
