In the sample below, I am displaying a subfile that are all OUTPUT only except for 2 fields where you can put an 'X" and it will then display more info in a new screen. When I come back from that screen, I want any X's that were entered prior to become blanks. I am using the READC to check for the X.. It will of course disregard the prior X and only look at a new X but I am thinking it looks bad and wanted to clear but when I do a SFLCLR and SFLBLD again I get a blank screen. I was wondering how the clear can be accomplished that is, the entire subfile should be checked. is this an update function perhaps?Yes, you need to execute an UPDATE opcode on the subfile record. Move a blank into the input-capable field and then UPDATE the record. This will clear the X the next time you display the subfile.
