Re: Program design to minimize record locks

I think you are referring to have the read of the PF "automatically" filling the DS subfields. I was referring to the fact that if Pete uses extname, then the fileNameDS will always have the current values of the fields (whether from the last read from the PF or from the DSPF) - this was part of the simplicity of the solution originally posted by Booth. If likeRec is used instead, then screen fields need to be moved to the file fields explicitly.


Oops, you're right, I was forgetting about the display file.

Darn Friday-brain.
