There is no such thing. Subfile is not an actual file. If your subfile has
20 records, then all 20 records exist in the subfile (blank or not). There
is no such thing as deleted (or as you refer to as blank) sub-file record.
I agreed with Duane that "Subfile record not found" is likely to be caused
by coding issue and should be corrected.
In INFDS, there is a field that will tell you how many record you have in
your sub-file. When you loop thru you subfile, use that as the max rrn for
the loop. I believe the field is NUM_RCDS.

Duane,
I 100% agree with you and believe me, I try hard to avoid that, but...
The idea is that I have this subfile with, let's say, maximum 20
records. There are only five populated, but they are not necessary one
after the other. Could be blank records intercalated (because the user
deleted them, for example); how am I going to get all the non-blank
records? I issue a CHAIN opcode and, when the record is blank ("not
found") I skip it; but the system issues the "Subfile record not found"
message (even worse, two times for one blank record).
Probably it is a better way to accomplish this and I would be very happy
to learn something....
Thank you

Florin, Alan;
Before you throw messages away you should always understand why the
message was sent. In this case Florin is probably trying to read a
subfile record that does not exist which IMO shouldn't happen.
Determining why the message is occurring and fixing that issue will
solve the problem of the user seeing the message and IMO improve the
code.

Hi Florin
there is a command called RMVJLMSG that I have downloaded and now use
extensively to remove whatever message is wanted to be removed (in my
case
CPF5020)
However, it only seems to be available from systemiNetwork The author is
named Rory Hewitt

Hello,
I have this interactive program processing a display file with a
subfile; the user enters values in the input fields (both, Control and
Subfile records). When the values are wrong, the program issues error
messages (in a subfile message record), using QMHSNDPM API, which are
shown the next time when the file is displayed. The problem is that the
system issues, also, messages, like "Subfile Record not found" followed
by a "C" (for Cancel) and the user sees this messages, too.
My question is how could I get rid of these system messages, so the user
sees only error messages directly related to the values he enters?
(Hopefully I was clear enough with my explanation...)
Thank you
