Its looking to me like you are reading through a file and populating fields in a subfile, and then reading the subfile to get the value you want. However, which field are you using to populate your packed field?

It's packed in the PF. In the DDS, I use the REF for define. Am I suppposed to unpack it in the program? I am doing nothing to it in the RPG ILE program, it is just supposed to be displayed after the user selected the record on the main subfile listing.I am not sure, how would this be happening?Are you sure you're not writing a field in the attribute byte of the packed field in the DDS?

I mimic this description in the DDS ( it is to be displayed when the user selected the record from the Subfile listing), There is data there but it is not displaying on the screen. For debugging I put in a loop if the file has this field at 0, keep reading the next record. This renders the subfile empty. I seem to be missing somthing. -- This is the RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries (RPG400-L) mailing list To post a message email: RPG400-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/rpg400-l or email: RPG400-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/rpg400-l. -- This is the RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries (RPG400-L) mailing list To post a message email: RPG400-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/rpg400-l or email: RPG400-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/rpg400-l.-- This is the RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries (RPG400-L) mailing list To post a message email: RPG400-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/rpg400-l or email: RPG400-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/rpg400-l.
