My UIM list panel has a "position to" input field in the

header

area that I can't get to work. Meaning: the UIM does not return

control

to my CPP program when a position-to value is entered and the ENTER

Key is

pressed. The F5 key does return to my CPP program using the following
KEYI specification.

:keyi key=F5 help=REFRESH action='RETURN 5' varupd=NO.
F5=Refresh


But I have the following KEYI specification for the ENTER key

and

this does not return to my CPP when a position-to value is entered and
this key is pressed. I tried changing the ACTION to RETURN 40, for
example, but this would not compile.

:keyi key=ENTER help=ENTERKY action='ENTER'.


So, what is the trick to getting the UIM to return control to

my

CPP program when a position-to value is entered and the ENTER key is
pressed? Thanks.

do you have the "field" defined as:
:DATAI VAR=INCSTR
USAGE=INOUT

In Carsents API programs there are several that use that type of field.
WRKCMDLOG is one I use all the time

Yes, I do.

:data depth=2.
:datacol width=20.
:datacol width=6.
:datacol width='*'.

:datai var=JOBID usage=INOUT help='WRKJBCTLOP/JOBID'.
Position to job

:edata.
