  • Subject: display attribute byte in subfile

Hello all,

Here is a little something we enconterd here. Most of you know that there must 
be at least one space between 2 fields on a display file and than that space 
holds the display attribute of the field (reverse image, underline ...).

But we noticed recently than in a subfile, we must leave 2 spaces between the 
fields if we want the display attribute to work correctly.

Does anyone know why a second byte is required?
