Re: Simple Subfile question

Jim,

In the DDS for the subfile control record (the header) you have to have
three conditioned keywords: SFLCLR (clear subfile), SFLDSPCTL (display
header) and SFLDSP (display subfile).  When you want to clear the subfile,
make sure the indicator for SFLCLR (apparently *IN55 in your case) is on and
the other two are off.  When you want to display the header you make sure
the indicator for SFLCLR is off and the indicator for SFLDSPCTL is on.  But
the indicator for SFLDSP should only be on when there are records in the
subfile (SF_RecNum > 0), otherwise you get a 'session or device error' (a
bit silly really, but most of us have gotten used to it).
