Thanks, that makes sense when I look at what I need to do, but unfortunately
I do not have the ability of mapinc as this will be a single program which
updates many different files all with different NULL capabilities. I will
not know until runtime what the nullflds will be like? I am wondering if I
can create a nullflds map over a file of say 8,000 null fields and simple
use it as a template for all null_maps? Probably easier if I could simple
access the in_null_map with a ptr and set the memory directly with 0xF0 or
0xF1?

Chris, for update, you need the _SET_UPDATE_NULL_MAP_FIELD macro. The one
you mentioned works with the output null map.
I think those macros are meant to be used with a typedef created by pragma
mapinc with the nullflds option. The _type would be the typedef name, and
the _field would the field name. It looks like the macros only support
clearing the whole null map with _CLEAR_UPDATE_NULL_MAP, and then setting
individual fields to '1' with _SET_UPDATE_NULL_MAP_FIELD.
Here's a test program I found in my library that updates file BMORRIS/JUNKF.
It looks like the field names in my junk file were all 10A, and the first
and third were defined ALWNULL. The program is blindly updating all the
fields, and setting the third field NULL3 to be null.
main()
{
#pragma mapinc("nulls", "BMORRIS/JUNKF(REC)","nullflds")
#pragma mapinc("data", "BMORRIS/JUNKF(REC)","both")
#include "nulls"
#include "data"
BMORRIS_JUNKF_REC_both_t data;
_RFILE *rf;
rf = _Ropen("BMORRIS/JUNKF", "rr+ nullcap=Y");
_Rreadn (rf, &data, sizeof(data), __DFT);
_CLEAR_UPDATE_NULL_MAP(rf, BMORRIS_JUNKF_REC_nmap_t);
memcpy(&data, "null1 notnull2 null3 notnull4 ", 40);
_SET_UPDATE_NULL_MAP_FIELD(rf, BMORRIS_JUNKF_REC_nmap_t, NULL3);
_Rupdate (rf, &data, sizeof(data));
_Rclose (rf);
}
