Hi Booth,

That is great thanks, I have got the program compiled and am using the scroll 
bar. However a couple of points still need sorting out. You can use SFLLIN and 
SFLMLTCHC at the same time, then I wondered how to identify the selected fields 
from the subfile and found the SFLCHCCTL keyword after looking on the net, at 
the moment it doesn't work, I have tried using *ULR and *ULP but haven't 
managed to get them working. *ULD only selects the field I did the double click 
on. It is a work in progress and I have had to shift to a more urgent job at 
the moment so I will get back to it later and see if I can get the thing 
working properly.

As to the scroll bar I do find that it is a little quirky, and not that good. 
It is slow and sometimes doesn't move the subfile at all until I drag it to the 
top or bottom and then of course I have to use the page up/down keys. So unless 
I am doing something totally wrong I shall probably take it out. 

Thanks again for your help Booth, yet again you save the day, which of the 
Thunderbirds do you pilot? :-)

Steve

Here is an example of what you want.

http://www.martinvt.com/Code_Samples/2_subfiles/2_subfiles.html

or

http://tinyurl.com/8v4q8


The keywords that interest you are SFLSNGCHC and SFLMLTCHC and 
MOUBTN(*ULD ENTER).

It is in my memory that you can not use SFLLIN  and SFLMLTCHC at the 
same time, but my memory is notoriously unreliable so you may want to 
review the manual.

The user can use the mouse click or the space bar to toggle selections.

By the way, note that this example uses the scroll bar.  The scroll bar 
works just like the scroll bar anywhere else.  It is not crippled or 
lacking features.  It seems ideal for your application.  Be sure to use 
a load-all subfile and pass the subfile size as an accurate number to 
get the fullest benefit if you do decide to add a scrollbar

Hi Chaps and chapesses,

I have a subfile where the user can select one or more records. Basically it 
is just a code for air waybills (xxx xxxx xxxx) so the subfile is displayed 
in four columns with a select field in front of each code. Now I thought it 
would make the users life easier if he/she could select the records by mouse. 
So the scenario is that the user clicks on as many records per screen as they 
want and then press enter to process them. This process is to replace the 
current one where the user has to go thru 3 screens per AWB with mucho 
repeatative keying of data.
So am I being too ambitious? I have tried using MOUBTN and PSHBTNFLD today 
(for the first time) going thru the examples and documents I can find on the 
net and in here, and they work fine, but they are for a single event, ie 
Enter, Exit etc. what I want to do is flag all the records they want and then 
process them en masse. I have tried various things but none even compile. 

Can it be done? 

Steve
