That is correct.  My question is more about after the read or exfmt, if the 
program do a chain to a subfile, should the value change?  For example:

FMYDSPF    CF   E             WORKSTN INFDS(infdsMYDSPF)
F                                     SFILE(MYSF :SFRR#)
D infdsMYDSPF     DS              
D  dfkey                369    369

C                   exfmt     MYSFCTL
 * let said user pressed F22 ==> dfKey is now x'BA'
C     SFRR#         chain(e)  MYSF      
 * Should above chain to subfile change the value of dfKey?

-----
My testing is showing that the value of dfKey got changed to x'00' after the 
chain to subfile.  I've been using this method to check command key for quite a 
while now and can't recall that ever happen before.

the hex value is in the ds (associated with your dspf) and is only changed
after a read or exfmt.

Just want to make sure:

When program gets control back after user pressed a function key, should the
hex values that represent the function key pressed changed when some way in
the program it does a chain to a subfile record format?
