  • Subject: RPG-RISC Question
  • From: DAsmussen@xxxxxxx
  • Date: Sat, 13 Sep 1997 01:57:55 -0400 (EDT)

Hello All,

I just heard this from a friend upgrading from CISC to RISC.  Under CISC, you
were allowed to perform a MOVEA '001X10' *IN,50 in order to set indicators
50-55 with new values while ignoring *IN53.  My initial reaction was "well,
you're just using too darned many indicators" until this person pointed out
that the indicators in question controlled screen attributes (where IS my
"FLDATR MyField Protect" DDS keyword, anyhow?).  Anyhow, I was told that the
"X" doesn't work under RISC.  Anyone with a different idea?

TIA,
