  • Subject: displaying a blank subfile
  • From: "David Prowak" <prowakd@xxxxxxx>

Hi,
In a subfile I have, I allow the entry of a "Position to ......   
__________' field,
similar to how SEU works.  When an entry is made that 
positions the subfile beyond any recs in the file, such as a cust # of all
9's,
I want to display a blank subfile.  So far I:
        1: turn *ON SFLCLR
        2: WRITE CTLREC
        3: turn *OFF SFLCLR
        4: since 0 recs were written to the subfile, SFLDSP is *OFF
        5: SFLDSPCTL is always *ON
        6: EXFMT SUBFILE
This just displays the same subfile that was displayed before the
"Position to" entry was processed.  I understand that SFLCLR doesn't
actually clear the subfile, rather it just makes all the recs inactive.
How do I get the subfile to appear blank?

TIA!
Dave
