I assume you are using DDS. If so, add FRCDTA to the definition. That
will force a screen refresh on each write.

Subject: Using Write with a DSPF


I could use some assistance with a minor although long term irritant
that I 
have had with a program.

When we are processing orders, I have a DSPF that shows a record count
and 
which order the system is currently updating.  What it is supposed to do
is 
determine the record count and update the DSPF so that the end user is
aware 
of how many records we are updating, changing, etc. Then after each
record 
is processed, it is supposed to increment the count, write the DSPF
record 
and move on; in theory so the user will see the progression of the 
processing.

For some reason though, it does not update the display file until after
all 
records have been processed.  

Included in the RPGLE is a write statement to write the record, which if
I 
am correct should re-display the updated file and then return control
back 
to the program as it moves to the next record.  But that is not
happening.

Suggestions? 

Douglas
