If you have my book "The Modern RPG IV Language" it has the code there to do
this.
Here's the summary (see below):
-Bob Cozzi
Specify an INFDS for the Display file, something like this:
FMyDsp CF Workstn INFDS(WSDS)
Then in position 369 of the INFDS, code a field for the FKEY scan code (AID
BYTE) that is returned, something like this:
D WSDS DS
D FKey 1A Overlay(WSDS:369)
Then include the FKEYS /COPY member from my book or from the RPG xTools. It
contains all the named constants that equate to the scan code for the
functions keys. For example F3 = X'33', something like this:
/INCLUDE xTOOLS/qcpysrc,fkeys
Then down in the calcs, use a SELECT/WHEN case group or an IF statement to
check for the function key:
C Exfmt MyFmt
C If FKey = F3
C eval *INLR = *ON
C return
C ElseIf FKey = F4
C callp FindItem(ITMDESC)
C endif
If you don't have the xTools or my Book, (why am I helping you??? <vbg>)
here is the FKEYS /COPY that you'll need.
/IF NOT DEFINED(RTK_FKEYS)
/DEFINE RTK_FKEYS

Hello there!
Can you give me an example of this Two things ?
Thank You !

Two things.
1) Instead of indicators, why not use the INFDS and the AID?
2) To use the DUP key I would have to DSs: one contain all the screen
fields, the other similar fields with obvious other names (on V5R1 you may
use key word QUALIFIED). Then first press, move from DS1 to DS2, second
press move from DS2 to DS1. Unless this is an old RPG III programme.

Carel Teijgeler

AND the input buffer data structure gets filled automatically like when the
