Re: Load-All SFL: Cursor positioning

Patrik

I dug around a little - here's something that might help - in this link - https://www.go4as400.com/Load-all-subfile-example-RPGLE/SFL-2.aspx?cid=42

In load-All subfile if we do PAGEDOWN and then press ENTER on the
page, by-default ENTER bring the display screen to the very first
page irrespective of the current page number. To avoid this
situation, we use file information data structure to get the current
page RRN number and pass it to the SFLRCDNBR hidden field defined in
the display file DDS.


SFLRCDNBR also has a 2nd parameter, the word *TOP, I believe - then the record number you put in SFLRCDNBR will be at the top of the subfile page.

I think this will work - I don't know how long *TOP has been available.

Cheers
Vern

Ask yourself this, what row would you expect to be positioned to on a load-all subfile done with RLA instead of SQL?

I don't recognize the term "RLA".

I think it just makes it clearer that once you pass it off to a load-all the positioning is out of your hands.

That's what I want to find out.

Comparing e. g. with the wrkmbrpdm display, scrolling makes the cursor appear in the first SFL line after each scroll, even if you position the cursor in another line. Not sure if this is a load-all, though.
