Re: Display File Ovelaping Fields

Mike, I know that I have personally gotten this to work.  I know that it
does give you an error message that has a severity level of 10 but it will
compile on our system.  You may need to change the severity level on your
compile to 20, just for this display file... if you want to go this route.

The other option... use soft coding as someone else suggested. (this may
not be lined up properly, but it's a 23 alpha output field).

A            FLDHD        23A   O  5  2

in the rpg...

If *In26;
   fldhd = 'Employee Information:';
Elseif *in25
  fldhd = 'what ever';
endif

Except that one field needs to be 10 long, another 50 long.

Why not code an output field in that space and control what text gets
loaded from within the program? Soft-code it?  That solves your problem
plus eliminates the indicators...

Subject: Display File Ovelaping Fields

I am designing a screen and based on a selection a couple different
fields will appear. However, I want to use the space for both sets of
fields. It has been so long I don't remember how to do it. I have tried
to place an indicator on the field and set non-display I still get
overlap errors. Here is a couple sample fields.

     A  26                              5  2'Employee Information:'
     A  26                                  COLOR(WHT)
     A  25                              5  2'Complainant Info:'
     A  25                                  COLOR(WHT)
