There is a problem with your idea of, for example, if indicator 1 needs to
be switched on, the code would be
eval FunctionKey = '1000000000000000000'
Now what do you do to switch indicator 3 on
eval FunctionKey = '1010000000000000000'
but what happens if indicator 1 does NOT need to be switched on prior to
indicator 3.
Like I said, the permutations and combinations of what is to be swithced on
with what is already set, it can become ridiculous.
e.g.
if FunctionKey = '1000000000000000000'
eval FunctionKey = '1010000000000000000'
else
if FunctionKey = '0000000000000000000'
eval FunctionKey = '0010000000000000000'
else
etc.
etc.

<Do you mean that any changes to the indicators will NOT be at the
individual level, but on the field FunctionKey?>
Yes
<If this is true, what a terrible idea. How are you going to change/check
indicator 03, with all the myriad of permutations and combinations? What do
you gain from using this method?>
Changing indicator would be by eval to the string '0010000000000000000'.
Checking for tie function key on is through a different DS written over the
INFDS. It was stated that the gain is that all these indicators can be set
at the same time.
