Absolutely neceesary DDS keywords

[Chris.Chambers@xxxxxxxxxxx]

After 10 years of working with DDS migrated from S/36's using migration
tools I am starting from scratch and creating a new system with no
reference to this old inherited code.

I have not included in the new DDS :

ALWROL, INVITE, SLNO(01) and CLRL(*ALL)

All are keywords which I had previously assumed to be necessary. I can
still overlay window screens on top of this and retain all the
functionality I would normally expect.

SO. . . . my question is - are any of these necessary, will I experience
problems by not specifying any and what is the bare
minimum keywords necessary to create a normal functioning screen. I am only
specifying ERRSFL, INDARA at file level and only function keys at record
level (apart from windows where OVERLAY is used).

Many thanks to previous replies regarding ERRSFL and screen refreshing - I
went for the double write.

All discourse welcomed,

Chris
