I would like to know where I can get a job description for what a Senior
Programmer Analyst would be. A descriptive top spec on what skills and
qualifications would be.
TIA,

I want to thank everyone for their help!
The problem was solved by setting off the INVITE (using a Not indicator
in
DDS) and using the same indicator to FRCDTA.
I then did a write of the subfile header.
My guess is the o/s thought it did a write/read of the subfile and
opened it back up. (not that I really care how it happened, the best
thing is IT
WORKED!)
Thanks again,
Craig

No, I had one user who would press enter a few times instead of just
once.
The job was reading and writing to DDM files so processing took 2 or 3
seconds. While it was processing her enter key strokes would get fed in
to the program, in the wrong locations, and it would fail. Took a while
to find this problem, because no one else had problems with the program.
And when she was demonstrating for you, She worked slower and it
wouldn't happen.

There is a way to make the screen "auto refresh" but be careful, It is
on
a timer that you set and removes the keyboard buffer. Function keys
and the enter key when pressed at the wrong time will cause program
errors.
If by "removes the keyboard buffer" you mean that data typed onto the
screen by a user is lost, then you are incorrect.
You can set things up so that the screen gets refreshed without losing
anything the user had already typed.

"Following INVITE is the PUTOVR (Put with Explicit Override) keyword.
PUTOVR is not necessary for
effecting a time-out, but using it is often desirable so that when your
device times out you don't lose any input you've already typed. PUTOVR
works in conjunction with the OVRDTA (Override Data) and OVRATR
(Override Attribute) keywords. You typically use these keywords to
reduce the amount of data sent to a display when the record format
you're writing is already on the display. When PUTOVR is in effect, the
system sends to the display only those fields for which OVRDTA is also
in effect. OVRATR works in a similar fashion for display attributes. In
the example, you can see that indicator 11 conditions OVRDTA. I can
therefore write the record with indicator 11 set off so that the system
sends no data to the display when I write the record again after the
time-out and anything already typed on the display remains there."
