I am still looking for something that does the subfile data entry and an
update with in one program. that is the goal now.

Just for reference. It is a single program, just multiple modules so you
would have something like this.

YA0001 - Top level- Just calls the first screen and closes on
return.
YA0001_M01 - Single page load subfile.
YA0001_M02 - Add/Edit/Display Panel.
YA0001_M03 - Delete confirm panel.

All bind together to a single program YA0001 with one display file
YA0001_D01. (YA = Your Application).

Anyway, something to keep in mind.

I wonder about your requirement for subfile data entry. That implies to
me that you are going to have to, also, have some way to edit the data
so you end up with another set of panels for editing. Things could start
expanding on you.

In my program, the user is presented with a subfile empty or not and
presses F6 to get a input panel. As long as they continue to enter data
and press enter they just keep getting another empty screen for input of
another record. When they hit F12, they get the subfile with all the
records they entered showing where they can use a 2(Edit), 4(Delete) or
5(Display).

If this is a one shot thing. Maybe you can get approval for program
generator. I didn't like Progen much myself but it might fit your needs.
