I haven't had much time to dig into this just yet, as I'm printing 1099s
today, but a cursory glance at the v5r2 Database & File API reference
*seems* to indicate that QUSLFLD does return row/column positions for
display file fields.  In the FLDL0100 structure, offset 448 & 452, the
"Display or print row number" and "Display or print column number" are
defined, respectively.

Now, I just gotta see if anyone's already invented that wheel.
