RE: Display File Ovelaping Fields

Mike,
If you create two formats (one for each "set" of fields) then write them to the
screen, you should see the results you desire.
The key would be to use the CLRL(*NO) keyword on those two formats so they don't
erase the display.  Just make sure you have enough information in the formats so
the erase the other format's data.

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...

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)
