RE: Is this possible and if so

Douglas,

I'm currently using a package software that uses the F4 key to prompt. They also follow the promptable fields with a plus + sign. The RPG program then determine the cursor location at the time the F4 key was pressed and calls the appropriate window program. They have over a hundred callable programs starting with WINxxxx. This works well and can be incorporated into custom programs.

subject: Is this possible and if so

I was wondering if this is possible and if so, if someone would point me in
the right direction.

I have a display file that a user uses to enter in motor vehicle citations,
accidents, etc. There are three fields: a date of the violation field, the
state in which the violation occured and a violation code field which
accepts a numeric value between 01 and 99. what I would like to do is have
the program display the corresponding description as soon as the user enters
the code value, IE: they enter 01 and exit the field and a description field
on the display file shows the description for that code.

Suggestions? Or is this something that is better handled via help files?
The problem I see with help files is constantly making changes as we enter
new code violation codes or delete ones no longer needed.

Suggestions?

Douglas
