Try ExFMT for the Subfile control record. You will see something then
unless there is no data.

Hi all,

   I have just started programming subfiles (using RPG
IV)and I am getting a little problem: The pgm writes
some information to the subfile records
e.g
C* write something to a field of the subfile record
C               movel 'XXXX'  sfld1
C* write the subfile record
C               write SFL
C* The above 2 instructions are repeated a few times
C* just to fill a few subfile records
C*
C* read/write the subfile ctl
C*              write SFLCTL

However the screen displays a blank subfile :
|------------------------------------|
|                                    |
|  ---   -------------               |
|  ---   -------------               |
|  ---   -------------               |
|  ---   -------------               |
|  ---   -------------               |
|  ---   -------------               |
|  ---   -------------               |
|                                    |
|------------------------------------|

I am sure that there is something obvious (to all of
you experienced RPG programmers) that I am missing but
I have been battling with this simple problem for
almost 1 day without success. Any help please?

TIA
