Screen shots don't come through the list.
However, took a quick glance at your code. Are you overlaying the main
screen with a window? If so, your value on the main screen won't be
updated unless you do an exfmt on that screen, thus your main screen would
still contain the Record Updated message.

Field not getting cleared while Displaying Error Message on Screen






Hi,

I have developed a new Maintenance Program. In this Program I have used a
user defined field on the Main Screen #Msg to diaplsy the informational
messages as 'Record Added' 'Record Updated'.
This field is being cleared each time after the EXFMT of the record
fortmat.
Now when the user comes back after Updating a record, The messge is
diaplayed as 'Record Updated'. Now without Pressing Enter, if the user
enetrs invalid values and presses enter the error message is popped up(I
have used ERRMSG for the Error Messages), but the message 'Record Updated'

still remains on the screen, though actually #Msg has been cleared and its

value is Blank.
Any suggestions or help will be appreciated0.(I have attachecd Screen
Shots
and the code of the Main subroutine)

Thanks in Advance

Derek
