What behavior are you not seeing that you would like to see? The cursor should position at the first field in error and all fields in error should reverse image. I am unclear as to what reverse image.hi light would look like. White with black letters perhaps?

As to redisplay, I am not following that. If you do a validity check and their is an error, you have to rewrite the screen: Something like this is what I do:

c dou *in90 = *off
c exfmt screen
c exsr validatation
c enddo
....
c validation begsr
c eval *in90 = *off
c do stuff....
c if any errors
c eval *in90 = *on
c endif
c endsr

(Of course, use other indicators for each error, so you can display the fields in error.)

I suspect this is pretty basic and may even offend you, but its what I do. :)

Adding DSPATR was my idea to make it a little better. Original code did not
have DSPATR(RI HI PC) in it. The ERRMSG line does display, with and without
the DSPATR keyword. I was wondering if I needed to use a keyword to force
redisplay. I had seen that in the manual, but when I looed at another display
file, did not see it used.
