RE: Hex Code for Field+ key -- RPG400-L

As Douglas has mentioned, 3F is probably not going to work.
In your case, the best way would be using the CHANGE keyword on the field.  If 
the indicator is *on, that means user just touched the entry field, ==> do not 
page down.

The code I have is... (The program is unfortunately written in RPGIII)

      *
     IINFDS       DS
     I                                      369 369 #KEY
      *
     I              X'3F'                 C         #AUTO
     I              X'F1'                 C         #ENTER


     C           *IN93     IFEQ *ON
      *
     C                     SELEC
     C           @COL  WHEQ 9
     C                     EXSR   COLCHK
      *
     C           @COL  WHGE 20
     C           @COL  ANDLE24
     C           #KEY  IFEQ #AUTO
     C           #KEY  OREQ #ENTER
     C                     EXSR COLCHK
     C                     END
      *
     C           @COL WHGE 39
     C           @COL ANDLE43
     C           #KEY  IFEQ #AUTO
     C           #KEY  OREQ #ENTER
     C                     EXSR COLCHK
     C                     END
     C                     ENDSL
     C                     END


If I use #AUTO only, the subroutine is not executed.  If I use #ENTER only 
it is.
The problem is that the users want the Enter key to force the program to 
page
to the next screen.  If the cursor is on one of the fields with the 
CHECK(ER),
the program positions the cursor to the next field instead of paging to the 
next
screen.

We mentioned using another function key for paging, but they don't want 
that.
Uggghhh....  Too much trouble to move their finger 3 inches to the F7 key
or some other key...
