RE: Simple Subfile question

You have your error line set up in the middle of your subfile detail lines.

subfile detail 10-19      error line 12

Thanks for all the tips, I've changed the indicators to be able to 
do the SFLDSP separately and it works like a champ.

Now I'm trying to implement the error message, and so I went into the
control record and made an output field called DFERRM which I plan on
loading with an error message and turning on the appropriate indicator
(57) when I want to display an error.  The only problem is, it won't 
compile.

* CPD7812      30        1      Message . . . . :   Subfile control record
overlaps subfile record. 

Here's the SFL and SFLCTL from my display file.  And yes, it's 
absolutely right, they do overlap, but I plan on showing one or
the other, not both (even tried changing the DFERRM indicator to
N56 but no change.

Any clues?
