To display any reformat with WINDOW keyword, the window must already
written to the screen.
Looking at you example DDS. You should write the message subfile only
after you have written the WINDOR to the screen.

Subject: Re: Error Message Subfile in a Window
Hmmm.. Well, I added the WINDOW keyword to the message subfile control
record. "WINDOW(WINDOR)" WINDOR is the record format for the window that
has the positions in its WINDOW keyword.
I already had a SFLMSGRCD() keyword - but may have positioned it
incorrectly. I increased the size of the window by one to make sure I
wasn't bumping into the border.
Now I am blowing up...
Message ID . . . . . . : CPF500A Severity . . . . . . . :
40
Message type . . . . . : Sender
copy
Date sent . . . . . . : 04/14/08 Time sent . . . . . . :

Message . . . . : Window does not
exist.
Cause . . . . . : An attempt was made to display a window record in a
window
that is not currently being
displayed.
Recovery . . . : Either specify a record format name of a window that
is
currently being displayed, or specify a window position in the WINDOW
keyword to create a new window. Then try the request again.
But the window IS showing... ???

You'll need to add the WINDOW keyword on the record format of the
Error Message Subfile control. The parameter of the WINDOW keyword
should be the record format name of the window where you want the
message to appear. You should also use the SFLMSGRCD() keyword in the
Error Message subfile to indicate which line you want the message to
appear.
