Re: Invalid subfile options and SFLMSG






Booth,

Did you update the subfile record after you turned *off the indicator?

HTH,

Nick

Why wouldn't the indicator be shut off when the message displays?  The 
book says it will.

But, beyond that, I tried what you suggest and that made no difference.

I assume your *in70 is the error indicator.

When you loop thru your subfile records, you need to turn off *in70 when 

you initially read it in.

Invalid subfile options and SFLMSG

Time 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.
