RE: How to capture unrepeatable error?

Tomek,

You can attach a data queue to a display file with CHGDSPF DTAQ(). When the user presses enter on the display file the screen fields are also sent to the data queue. You can then review the data queue to see what was keyed.

Hi

Could you prompt me a little how can I resolve my problem?

I have some program which calculate a cost of transport - usually it's works perfectly, to simplify
program write to two files - general ledger and item ledger. In general ledger amount is always
corect, but in item ledger from time to time amount is completely wrong - though the same amount in
general ledger is still correct. When I test it and debug, I always get correct results. And when I
talk with users - they always sad "I enter correct values on the screen". But errors as were still
coming from time to time.
This is an interactive program.
So my question is - how to in simply way get two things:
1) how to save all screen's fields every time when user pres enter or other function keys? the best
- in separately file with time stamp
2) how to save all variables from program in the "write_line_to_item_ledger" moment? I can of course
prepare separately file but I would like to do it using one separately command/program - without
change program to much.

Have you any idea?

Regards

Tomek
