I already have SFLCSRRRN specified, but it is not returning the right
RRN, even when the cursor is position on the field at the time.
I dont know if this is because I am pressing a function key, rather than
typing into a field.

I'll just have to do it the hard way.

Yes and no.  There is the DDS keyword SFLCSRRRN, which usually returns
the
relative record number of the subfile where the cursor was located when
control was returned to the program.  

The exception is when the cursor is positioned outside of the subfile.
In
that case, I believe the first relative record number displayed on the
screen will be returned.  The only way I know of to avoid this is to use
RTNCSRLOC to determine if the cursor was positioned within the subfile
block.

<clip>
the only way to find out
which subfile record the cursor was on when the function key was pressed
seems to be to use the cursor location, RTNCSRLOC. Is there a better
way?
