Hey I got it to work!!! Selecting multiple records on a subfile using the mouse 
or spacebar, and I am not telling anyone how I did it!!  :-P

Nah I have a couple of bug to work out, fields on the header behave a little 
oddly so I want to see what I can do about that before I say it works properly.

You may know this already, but please bear with me.

The AID byte must be specified in the INFDS like so:

     Fclm241fm  cf   e             workstn infds(CFKEYS)
     F                                     sfile(subfile1:rrn1)

     D CFKEYS          DS
     D  AIDKey                        1A   overlay(CFKEYS:369)


The AID byte can then be checked (Assuming Mocha returns the AID byte) like
so:

         exfmt sflctl1;

         if AIDKey = F3;
           leave;
         endif;

         if AIDKey = F9;
           exsr AddTask;
           exsr loadsfl1;
         endif;

         if AIDKey = E01 or AIDKey = Enter;
           if sflrrn > *zero;
             exsr DspTask;
           endif;
         endif;

You then do any processing you need to do after your IF statement.  I use
this extensively since it is self-documenting.

Not really. You have given me a list. What can I do with it? I think I
was looking for a manual or something that talks about this (The DDS

How can I use this to do what I need to do - if it works at all on
Mocha... What do these mean? What action do I take to trigger them? I
think that's what I mean by "information on AID keystrokes"...

However, thank you for the effort!

Did a search on the DDS manual, and nothing showed up...

5250 Mouse Support 101

There are 2 levels of 5250 mouse support: Simple Hotspots and
Programmable Mouse Buttons.

Simple Hotspots is, as the name implies, SIMPLE. Clicking on an
SAA-CUA-compliant (Systems Application Architecture; Common User
Access) function key label (or, depending on the enhancement level, a
"More" or "Bottom" message, the word "Enter,") will generate the
appropriate AID
("Attention-ID") keystroke. Depending on the enhancement level,
clicking on a CUA-compliant selection column value label may also
enter the value at the current cursor position, and clicking on a
CUA-compliant menu item may enter the menu item number at the current
cursor position and generate an "Enter" AID.

Clicking anywhere else moves the cursor to the mouse pointer position;

double clicking anywhere else moves the cursor and generates an
"Enter."

All this happens, to the extent that it happens at all, without the
need for any special coding on the host side.
In the case of a real terminal, it must be an InfoWindow II (or clone
thereof), plugged into an enhanced Twinax controller.


Programmable Mouse Buttons (PMB) is a 5250 "structured field" that is
sent to the terminal to implement "MOUBTN"
in a display file. Provided that the terminal/controller combination
(or the TN5250 client or other emulator) can accept it. It reassigns
the semantics of various mouse gestures, causing them to generate (in
its simplest form) AID keystrokes.

I looked into including PMB support in the emulator we supply as part
of our ThinView and Wintouch products (and may someday supply as a
standalone product). But so far, there's been no demand; neither do I
have the time, nor a sufficiently comprehensive PMB-enabled
application to test it with, so (along with WP mode, which is
virtually extinct), it ain't happening anytime soon. Since I believe
MochaSoft may have some of the same roots as our emulator, I'd have
been shocked if it did have PMB support.


Even without PMB support, you can do a lot with mouse buttons. For
example, our QuestView product is set up so that if you place the
cursor on a menu header in the action bar, and issue an "Enter" AID,
the menu will open.
Thus, double-clicking on a menu will also open it. And the menus
themselves are set to fire from an "Enter" with the cursor on the
item, so even if your terminal or emulator won't specifically
recognize a single-click on a CUA-compliant menu item, QuestView will
recognize a double-click on it.



Class dismissed.
