Are you using PUTOVR and OVRDTA in your display file?

I'm going on memory here (always dangerous!), but if your display file
record has the keyword PUTOVR and your S1EQP field has the keyword OVRDTA,
then you need to turn on the indicator for OVRDTA to get a new field value
to show up on the display.

Hope this helps!
Richard

Subject: screen field not changing, but debug value is changed.


Running in debug I find that field S1EQP has an original value of "test 6",
which is properly displayed, but then I change the value of field S1EQP to
test 12" and write the same screen format again and the screen value remains
as "test 6".  The value in debug F11 shows "test 12"

What sort of *duh* mistake could i possibly have made?  The write opcode is
followed by an exfmt that protects the values on the first format and stops
processing so the user can browse the record.
