RE: What do you do when a subfile has no records?

I usually initialize the subfile, write a blank record to it, set SFLDSP
to be inactive and where subfile record 1 would be I display a record
format with a single line stating something like "No information
available".

What do you do when a subfile has no records?  As I program yet another
subfile it dons on me that my solution for an empty subfile is not very
elegant, and probably isn't even very good.

What do others do?
