Re: Positioning a windowed subfile

You can use *DFT for the window position in your dds and the program will
take care of positioning the window, based upon where the cursor is.  
 
There's problems with doing it in your program, specifically having to do
with when the cursor is near the bottom or right edges of the screen.

Subject: Positioning a windowed subfile
 
Iam trying to get the inquiry window to pop up where the cursor is
positioned in subfile program.
When the user presses F4 to call the subfile inquiry program , the program
needs to retrieve the cursor position of the screen to pass the coordinates
to the subfile program.This process is coded in the following lines...
 
F  subfile     C  F E   WORKSTN
F                                                     KINFDS INFDS
 
I INFDS         DS
I                                              370 371 LINPOS
 
I                                         B   1       20LIN
I                                                2      2 L
 
I                   DS
 
I                                          B   1    20POS
I                                                2   2     P
C                 MOVE *ZEROS      LIN
C                 MOVE *ZEROS      POS
C                 MOVELLINPOS      L
C                 MOVE  LINPOS      P
C                 Z-ADD  LIN             SL       30
C                 Z-ADD  POS           SP       30
 
 
 
Can  some advise better ile code to the above or any much simplified code?
 
Thank you,
