Re: RPGLE DDS Subfile out of 9999 records limit

JJ,

I found that I had gotten the idea for the subfile/data queue from an
article posted on ITJungle. Here is the link:

http://www.itjungle.com/mpo/mpo052302-story05.html

To answer Alan's question, my program allowed the user to select records
to be displayed. The result set could have over the 9999 record limit of
subfile record. However, I also needed to be able to select a record for
editing, display, copy, or delete from several pages. As the user would
page thru the subfiles, we needed to have their selection show with the
record.

Hi,

As you know that IBM restricted to the 9,999 records limit when load a
subfile, and we can just load one page at a time to not limited by the
number of records.

But I have a situation that need to load all data (almost 30, 000 records)
into subfiles, and allow user to do page down, page up to select/change
multiple records. I can do the page down & page up, but how can I get my
selected data 'cause the original SFLRCDNBR can only up to 9999 ?

Any hints, suggestions or sample codes would be really appreciated!

JJ
