RE: change the Attribute of a field

I've experimented with the PFLD technique, but had problems because of PC
(position cursor.)

        1) Although PC is specified using the DSPATR keyword, apparently
there is no hex code associated with this "attribute." So I still needed an
indicator for that. Which wouldn't be an insurmountable problem except
        2) I couldn't seem to get PC to work correctly in conjunction with
PFLDs in a subfile. My subfile fields had all of the correct display
attributes, but the PC didn't appear to be recognized (when used on the same
subfile field that had DSPATR(&PFLD).)
        If I remember correctly, I experienced some of the same problems for
similarly defined fields in the subfile control record.

Maybe I was doing something wrong -- anyone else have that problem?
