Re: Subfile maint. w/ add -- RPG400-L

It's just a habit of checking for If %Found()... I suppose technically I
don't need it if RRNMAX has the total number of records in the SUBFILE...

May I ask the purpose of the if/endif in the FOR loop? ( I do like the
idea of avoiding the READC opcode. Todays machines give no benefit for
this opcode, and there are gotcha's to watch for.)

No... %EoF() doesn't return a numeric value to use in your FOR clause...
The "TO" portion needs to a number or a field with a number in it.
Also... you can only put the name of the display file in the %EoF()
function....

What you need to do....

C READC SFL1
C DoW not %EoF(DISPLAYFILE)
C ... process
C READC SFL1
C ENDDO

OR

For RRN1 = 1 To RRNMAX;
Chain RRN1 SFL1
If not %Found(DISPLAYFILE);
Leave;
endif;
... process
Endfor;

Booth, just one thing on this code the statement is garnering a '20'
message in the compile but not getting a clean compile the format is
the subfile is this allowed for a subfile?

C for RRN1 = 1 to %eof(sfl1)

002200 Parameter SFL1 is not valid for built-in function %
%EOF is ignored.

Nope. before, or after (depending on where you want the blank lines),
clear the sfl record and add a FOR loop that will write however many
blank lines that you want.

HI Thank you for greta help earlier. I apologize for the

simplicity of the issue earlier. Perhaps this one is better.

My issue now is, I did create the data entry program. But to me,

it would be slicker, if I just add empty lines in my regular
maintenace subfile, which does Change and Delete very nicely. I
currently hang a F6 ket to ADD records. Now I will then call my new
add program or copy the code in.

But why not be able to add blank lines to the existing maintenance

program and let them add?

Are there are special keywords I would need or codes for this?

Thanks, Mike
