I am short of Indicators

[Bob Spinks <rspinks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

>Hi All,

>It happens everytime.
>My application uses almost every indicator from 01 to 99. These indiactors
are
>basically used to condition various display attributes of the display
files'
>fields.
>Now when I go to add a new field or add some more display attribute to an
>existing field, I find that I have already used up all the indicators,
nothing
>is left.
>Then I go and put lots of Or/And conditions for the indiactors.
>But this is not a clean way.
>Can anybody tell me if there is a better way to do this?

>(Day dreaming : - AS/400 guys at IBM has increased Indiacator length from
2 to 3
>thus increasing the indicators from 001 to 999)

1. Program to system values for your display attributes 
2. Use byte position 369 of the INFDS and named constants
    to define hex values of indicator or function chosen
