Re: Display file format with no response to attention keys

Hi Rich,

I did try the original, untouched-and-compiled-on-another-machine program
and display file, and they worked fine, which narrowed it down to the
modifications.  One of the analysts discovered that if she filled in one of
the newly added fields, it worked, which pinpointed the problem.  Actually,
there were several, but the one causing the described behavior was a
CHECK(ME) on a conditioned field, which happened to be conditioned by an
indicator that was used for DSPATR(PC RI) on another field entirely.

The program (PHRE010) uses all 99 indicators, and the PHDE010D format alone
uses 65 of them.  Lots of fun. I found another indicator that was only used
in one place on another format, and was based on a flag field so I could set
it just before the EXFMT and reuse for my purposes on PHDE010D.

Btw, SMS is actually slowly converting them all to RPGLE, so things aren't
all bad.

Thanks for the ideas!
