Subject: CHECK(ER) and Field Validation
 
How can I let my program know that CHECK(ER) is being used and to run a
validation routine on the field that has CHECK(ER). I'm using CHECK(ER) on
a field I want validated as soon as the user enters in the last position of
the field. Is there a way to have a validation routine run only when
CHECK(ER) is being used. The program is an RPGIII program. I'm open to
easier/alternative suggestions of accomplishing this same task.
 
I would like something similar to:
 
EXFMT DISPLAY
 
*Validate XFIELD because there is a display attribute of CHECK(ER)
on the field and the user has entered data into the field
================================
 
================================
 
*NORMAL PROCESSING
=============================

If there are other ideas on how I can accomplish this, please let me know.
 
Thanks,
