Re: DSPF Home Key positioning to field in control record.

well, I knew that Reset Indicators was turning off HomeKey, So I was trying
to save it before issuing the Reset Indicators. Then right before the
exfmt, i was just trying to restore the value. but that had no effect on
it.

Not sure why, but I removed the Reset indicators and removed the two lines
you mentioned, and it all works as designed... something with that reset
was screwing it up.

But I still have one issue. Pressing F11 to expand the subfile record is
still removing the highlighting of two constant fields.

I am not completely sure I follow what is happening, but here is my shot
at it:

When the Home key is pressed the if/else loop does nothing.

This makes me think that commenting
line 56. HomeKey = Save_homeKey;
and
line 58. Save_HomeKey = HomeKey;

might make a difference. My guess is that it will either fix it or show
you the problem from another angle, and lead you safely home.

I've spent entirely too much time on this. Could someone please help me
out on this. I've never bothered handling the home key. Here's the

issue.

When I press Home, it is disabling the field in the control record. So
it's always going back to the first subfile record.

What I want to do is.. .when the program first loads, I want the cursor

to

be positioned to the first subfile record. This is working just fine,
display file has...


Then when the user presses home, I want the first field in the subfile
control to have focus. But when I press home, the fields in the control
record get disabled even though I have no protect indicators specified.
Home Key has a response indicator of 27. First field in control

record

has a position cursor of 27 on it.

I've copied an existing program that is working as I want. Where the only
difference I see is that I am using the INDARA and INDDS in the program.


I've also never done a folded subfile before either. Something strange

is

happening here too. If I press Home which locks the Control record

fields,

I can press F11 to expanded the subfile records and it enables the

control

records. I also have two constants in the control record that is
highlighted, they lose highlighting when I press F11.

I've put code here... http://code.midrange.com/c1b28b9e6f.html
