>I wonder, Charlie, if the problem nagging at you is that there may be two >errors, and the second error will not be found til the next cycle? > No, the sample Rick presented is serial editing, i.e. the user wants the screen redisplayed as soon as the first error is encountered. The other option is full screen editing which displays every error encountered. Some users like serial editing because when the edits of several fields depend on the value of a previous field, the subsequent fields may show up as errors even though they are not really errors. Other users like full screen editing because they don't want to have to press enter 5 times to get all fields edited and corrected. From our perspective, it is a user call. >In <199705302046.QAA21400@vixa.voyager.net>, on 05/30/97 > at 04:41 PM, cmassoglia@voyager.net (Charlie Massoglia) said: > >#Rick Baird wrote: >#> > >#>C F1EDIT BEGSR >#> >#>C MOVE *OFF $ERROR >#> >#>C IF (some error condition) >#>C MOVE *ON $ERROR >#>C ENDIF >#> >#>C $ERROR IFEQ *OFF >#>C IF (some error condition) >#>C MOVE *ON $ERROR >#>C ENDIF >#>C ENDIF >#> >#> >#>C $ERROR IFEQ *OFF >#>C IF (some error condition) >#>C MOVE *ON $ERROR >#>C ENDIF >#>C ENDIF >#> >#>etc.... >#> >#>C ENDSR >#> >#I have a real problem retesting the field $ERROR once for each test.
