Invalid subfile options and SFLMSGTime to get a tad smarter. Not necessarily smart, just smarter than I am this morning.
OK, here's the scenario: A subfile with a subfile option field so one can key in a '2' to edit, '4' to delete, '5' to view, etc. I've added a validity checking subroutine to be sure the user keyed in a valid value ('2','4', '5' for instance). I do a "for" loop and test each subfile record. If the option does not validate then I turn on *in70 and update the subfile before continuing the loop. After the "for" loop there is no further processing, and the screen is exfmt'd again.
Everything works fine so far as I can see, excepting one problem that I can not figure out how to solve.
In testing, if I key several invalid options and press enter, it returns the error message and places the cursor on the first error of the subfile. Fine so far. Now, if I fix the first invalid option but none of the others, and then enter, the cursor goes to the corrected field and still shows as an error.
