David,

My memory is old (and aging at the shocking, shocking! rate of a year
per year <grin />), so take this with a grain of salt.

From that memory, SFLEND(*MORE), when on, changes the indication on the
last page of the subfile to "Bottom". The only tricky bit here is with
a page-by-page subfile: at each WRITE of the control record, you need
to know whether there is a record for the *next* page of the subfile.
When feasible, I punt on this and write the whole subfile at once.
Then, the SFLEND keyword does not need to be conditioned at all.

HTH (and that it is not *too* wrong),
Terry.

Hi,

Sorry to ask about this but as I create a subfile about once every 5 years I can never remember. It's time I understood it properly.

I don't get the explanation in the manual. I have a small subfile that I load completely, but as it is in a window I could easily have two or three pages with only 3 or 4 rows per page. In my program I haven't touched the SFLEND indicator at all. The "more" text shows all the time - even when there's only one row. How do I know when to set if on or off? I have SFLSIZ 5 and SFLPAG 4.

Thanks.
