RE: Subfile question

Another thing Doug...  It probably isn't wise to assign the same indicator
to the SFLDSP & the SFLDSPCTL keywords.  I never assign an indicator to the
SFLDSPCTL keyword, cuz I want the Control Record to display irregardless of
whether there are records in the subfile or not.

Basically I guess the author is saying that either you're showing the 
subfile, or you're clearing it, so instead of using two separate 
indicators to use the one.  Door is either open or closed I guess.  I 
don't like doing that though.  Looks confusing to someone coming in to fix 
something on the pgm.

Subfile question






I decided I needed some text help on subfiles so I ordered the 
book "Essentials of subfile Programming and advanced topics in RPG IV"

One question I have is a comment the author made:

The SFLCLR must have the opposite indicator value.....

Is he talking about the opposite value of SFLDSP, SFLDSPCTL or both? I 
looked at a sample subfile a friend of mine sent me and he was using 
indicators 51 for the SFLDSP and SFLDSPCTL fields and 50 for SFLCLR....and 

it works...

Can anyone explain what the author might have been talking about?

Here is the example he gave:

A     50                                     SFLDSP
A     50                                     SFLDSPCTL
A    N50                                     SFLCLR

Saying the N50 is the opposite of 50.
