Re: RPG Enhancement: Use of other indicator fields on OFLIND

Here is the easy way to indicate whether overflow should happen in the RPG
(using Externally Described Printer Files),

f PrinterFileName   E                      Printer  OFLIND(*IN99)

c
c                              Write        DetailRecord
99               <-------- in column 56-57 (Err or < column)
c                               If               *IN99
c         Write        HeaderRecord           99               <-------- *in99
will automatically setoff.
c         Endif
c
c


Of course make sure you defined your HeaderRecord to Skip Before to a
particullar line, like line 1 (whatever).

My 2 cents worth..........

Currently I am doing the following code and was thinking how
sweet it would be if we could define our own indicators on the
OFLIND instead of using just *IN indicators.


FCHGAUTOBJPO    E             PRINTER OFLIND(*IN01)
------------ 29 data records excluded ------------------
 * Redefine the Overflow Indicator
D OverflowP       S               *   inz(%addr(*in01))
D OverFlow        S               N   based(OverflowP)
------------ 35 data records excluded ------------------
C     *INZSR        BEGSR
C                   write     HEADER
C                   EndSr

C     DetSub        BEGSR
C------------ 1 data records excluded ------------------
C                   If        OverFlow
C                   eval      OverFlow=*off
C                   Write     HEADER
C                   EndIf
C                   Write     DETAIL
C                   EndSr
