  • Subject: Re: sys 36 internal display file
  • From: Kmh0421@xxxxxxx

Hello, and TIA for any help I get. I am modifying some old Sys 36 WSU stuff. 
I had to internally define the display file (per the client request, another 
long conversation) and let's just say per the client, it must be done this 
way. Anyway, I have 3 screens on the input specs and output specs. I have 
indicators on the output specs for the correct screen to display. Screen one 
display fine for the user to enter a batch number and proceed to display two. 
Display 2 comes up fine, but when I enter data and press enter, the screen is 
cleared and redisplayed blank with errors. Since this must all stay in 36 
mode, an EXCPT is required for the output spec (SCRN1,2,3 etc), and a READ on 
the screen format DE123SFM. Any ideas on why the screen is being cleared? I 
took out the #of lines to clear in the 'S' sequence of the S&D specs just for 
yuks and it didn't help. I tried using indicators on the various screen input 
specs with the same result. I am puzzled. There is obviously something I am 
missing..... can you help?
