I have defined a subfile with 4 columns comprising 2 distinct fields.
For example, the first 2 columns are store type and store number.  The
second 2 columns are also store type and store number.  

In my panel group, I have defined help text for each field (store type
and store number).  In my DDS for the display file, I have defined a
HLPARA for each field.  That is, 2 HLPARA statements referencing the
store type text in the panel group and 2 HLPARA statements referencing
the store number text.  

The problem is that when the extended help is selected, the text for the
store type and store number appears twice.  Is there any way, short of
combining the text for the fields into one topic, to alleviate this
problem?

Below is the source for the display file HLPARA and HLPPNLGRP
specifications and the panel group.
