insert statement in between statements in an existing line structure - insert statement in between statements in an existing line structure - Messages

Sorry if this has been addressed before, if so simply point me there, my several searches did not turn up anything,
In writing programs I often find I need to create statements above statements I've already written, and I don't know how to provoke an empy statement placeholder inside an existing line structure.
I've been getting the function I want by having nested line structures, where the nesting is functionally meaningless, just a way to workaround my ignorance of the right way.
Thanks Joe

Just use the argument divider (comma or semicolon, dependent on the settings) while the cursor is at the appropriate position (line beginning or ending).

Below is a picture with regards to MarB's instructions. In addition, there is the ability to click'n-drag the statement to increase the number of line items:

Hope this helps,

It worked, thank you all.
I've attamept to attach the problem example that Jean Giraud suggested would be helpful, along with the illustration of the solution that MarB and Kenny Lemens described, but my attempts appear to fail. Sorry.

I guess the attempts worked, in spite of the flashing red message.

Hmmm, interesting.
Here's a screen snap of it open with the version of SMath Studio shown also and a pdf ->

As an afterthought, I downloaded the file I uploaded and it opened on my laptop with my installation of SMath Studio.

Hello, Joe.
Your 'while' loop may be short of productive ! ?
Maybe not a case of 'while', rather a cumulative.
Cheers ... Jean.

True Jean, Thanks. As a contrived example it has no further existence in a productive worksheet of mine.
