On the IBM i, you can also "just move the desired attribute(s) to the
screen fields right along with the data."
Check out: DSPATR(&program-to-system-field)

Yes, another one of those keywords I was talking about. But it is
not just the display attributes. There are about 175 keywords for DSPF.
That's a lot to juggle. The whole issue with the reverse nature of
CHGINPDFT is a nightmare to get right the first time and then make sure
you are doing it the same way every time thereafter. I've had to wade
through it quite a number of times and it is never easy.


Sincerely,
