Hi All, I'm trying to manipulate the SFLROLVAL variable as follows: When my subfile is in "Fold" mode, I have 3 records of 5 lines showing. When in "Fold" mode, I want to roll up 3 records at a time. When the subfile is in "Drop" mode, I have 15 records of one line showing. When in "Drop" mode, I want to roll up 14 records at a time - i.e., I want the bottom record on the display to be the top record in the next. I've attempted to use the SFLMODE keyword on the subfile control to determine if I'm in "fold" or "drop" mode with success, but when I try to set the SFLROLVAL keyword (I also have it hidden and protected), I get nowhere. The affect of resetting the SFLROLVAL is "one screen too late", almost as if the read doesn't occur after I press me F-key to change the mode. (If I wanted to just let the system control the rolling, it works fine. But it rolls a full page at a time. I want to change the roll characteristics when I have 15 records to roll up only 14 records. That's the rub.) What am I doing wrong? Any ideas? Thanks in advance! =============================== William Washington III Njia Systems Incorporated w.washington3@njiasystems.com 312-719-0519 ===============================
