You may know this already, but please bear with me.
The AID byte must be specified in the INFDS like so:
Fclm241fm cf e workstn infds(CFKEYS)
F sfile(subfile1:rrn1)
D CFKEYS DS
D AIDKey 1A overlay(CFKEYS:369)
The AID byte can then be checked (Assuming Mocha returns the AID byte) like
so:
exfmt sflctl1;
if AIDKey = F3;
leave;
endif;
if AIDKey = F9;
exsr AddTask;
exsr loadsfl1;
endif;
if AIDKey = E01 or AIDKey = Enter;
if sflrrn > *zero;
exsr DspTask;
endif;
endif;
You then do any processing you need to do after your IF statement. I use
this extensively since it is self-documenting.

Not really. You have given me a list. What can I do with it? I think I was looking for a manual or something that talks about this (The DDS manual didn't seem to...). How can I use this to do what I need to do - if it works at all on Mocha... What do these mean? What action do I take to trigger them? I think that's what I mean by "information on AID keystrokes"... However, thank you for the effort!
