RE: Subfile Control Issue

Try CF09 rather CA09.

Subject: Subfile Control Issue


The subfile control contains fields defined as both input and output.
The subfile itself is a list of all previously entered transactions
(with a select field that can be used to select the transaction for
update or deletion). Two of the subfile control fields are promptable;
if the client presses F9 while positioned on the field, an appropriate
inquiry program is called from which the client may select the value to
use for the field.


The problem that I am having is that, after the F9 key is pressed and
the primary program's subfile is re-displayed, any previously entered
fields are cleared (blank or zero). The control logic is:


DOW FKey <> F3;

WRITE MCU004AFK; // Function keys
WRITE MSGSFLB; // Message subfile
EXFMT MCU004ACTL; // Subfile control
EXSR $CMsg; // Clear message subfile

IF FKey = F3;
LEAVE;
ENDIF;


IF FKey = F9 // Prompt function
AND zzfld = 'UMA';
s#um = '***';
arq018(s#um:term);
IF s#um <> *Blanks;
uma = s#um;
ENDIF;
ITER;
ENDIF;


I have done this several times before with success; i.e., previously
entered fields are re-displayed with the values entered before the
prompt fills in data. The difference is that, in those cases, these
have been simple record panels, not subfile controls.


The subfile control record has:

R MCU004ACTL SFLCTL(MCU004A)
OVERLAY
SFLSIZ(9999)
SFLPAG(0014)
33 SFLDSP
N31 SFLDSPCTL
31 SFLCLR
90 SFLEND(*MORE)
CA09
RTNCSRLOC(&ZZRCD &ZZFLD &ZZPOS)
ZZRCD 10A H
ZZPOS 4S 0H
ZZFLD 10A H
RRN 4S 0H SFLRCDNBR


Am I missing a SFLxxx keyword, or is it not possible to do what I want
with a subfile control?

Thanks.
