RE: How to get the RRN of the first record in the current page?

May not be the answer you are looking for, but isn't it the last multiple of
your page size plus one?

If you are displaying 12 records/page, and you process record 39, then the
rrn of the top record is 37 (3x12)+1...

Hi
I need to know the RRN of the first record on the current page. I tried in
this way:

1. Declared INFDS(DSPFDS) in F spec
2. Defined DSPFDS in the following way

D DSPFDS          DS
D  SFLRRN                376    377 I 0
D  SFLRRN1              378    379 I 0
D  SFLRRN2              380    381 I 0

But after I do Page Down and press ENTER, SFLRRN1 and SFLRRN2 are zero
(always). SFLRRN is getting the total no. of records at first, then the RRN
of the record I am trying to process. But I don't get the RRN of the first
record in the current page. How do I get that?
TIA
Amitava
