It looks to me like you've just defined a user field on line 12 for
error messages. The built-in message location is defined by the MSGLOC
keyword on the DDS and defaults to a line between 24 and 28 depending
upon the display size and other keywords used. You will need to set this
to 12 also, but this might conflict with your user-defined field.

Subject: Error Messages Display

We have recently installed Motorola RF scanners. The scanners have
Windows
CE for an operating system and use a program that provides 5250
emulation.



The issue is the programs that we have written (RPG DSPF) have been
modified
to display all the information in the first 12 lines of the screen.
This
keeps the display within the tiny screen displayed on the scanner. Even
though we have defined line 12 for error messages, the errors still
appear
on line 24.





A 7 3'F3=Exit'

A 7 14'F4=Add'

A ERRMSG 18A O 12 3

A 29 ERRMSG('FIELD SCAN INVALID')







RF Scanner Screen




OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB





F3=Exit F4=Add














OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOO
OOO





Anyone have any idea why the OS keeps repositioning the message line?
