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

Not to be a wiseguy, but if they are always highlighted, why not just mark them as COLOR(WHT) and be done with it??

But to answer your issue: I am not sure where or what the constant fields are? Are they in the control format, like a title? Or are they variable field that hold a constant value, like a column heading? (I do that on sortable subfiles so the user will know what column is the sorting column.)

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.
