When an error is encountered with an Inliine ASM statement, the box that opens only gives me the offending instruction and a numbered error (such as 93) for that error. I don't see any way to immediately find out just what error 93 signifies. It;s a long way from that point to get to the external help file for ASM and all I can do there is look up the instruction being used.

Since some instructions are used repeatedly, it would be nice if the line where the instruction is was highlighted, so I don't waste time trying to figure out which one it might be. And if there were a way to resolve that numbered error into a plain text message, that would be great!

Use the /commented option when compiling and check the 'nasm.out' file in your compiler folder for more information. you can see which line in the commented asm output that gave the error..

That's good to know, but it does not answer the question of what the error actually is, and it is somewhat difficult to recover the information. I still feel that the IDE could be more informative and helpful in this area.
