RE: Positioning a windowed subfile

Hi,

I had the same problem few days back. I have been answered by Eric using
RTNCSRLOC on this -

You've got the right idea, except that returning row and column position
means you have to hardcode these values in your program.  Instead, you
should return the record information (Record name, field name, and position)
like so:

A          R TEST2
A                                      CF03(03)
A                                      CF04(04)
A                                      RTNCSRLOC(*RECNAME &$CURREC &$CURFL-
A                                      D &$CURPOS)
A            $CURREC       10A  H
A            $CURFLD       10A  H
A            $CURPOS        4S 0H
A            CUSTNO         9S 0B 12 20

Every time the program returns from input, you can test for *IN04 and
$CurFld='yourFldName' to see if you need to display the pop-up.  You can
usually disregard the CURPOS and CURREC pieces....

C                   ExFmt     Test2
C
C                   Select
C                   When      *In03
C                   Seton                                        LR
C
C                   When      $CurFld = 'CUSTNO' and *In04
C*  Prompt code goes here
C                   EndSl
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Try this out. This one worked out fine. Hope this helps.


Regards,
Gauri.

Look at the DDS keyword RTNCSRLOC.
It will return the location of the cursor to your program in separate row
and column fields.

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,
