Another option would be to provide some way for an error DS that
returned a field name + an error message (ID).

This would allow your process to return multiple message for any given field.

Hi all,

A program displays 5 fields concerning a client's bank details. A procedure exists that accepts these details as a DS and checks each field.

eg:


D CheckBankDetails...
D                    PI       N
D BankDetails                       likeds(refDS) const
D error                             like(refError)


 /free
       If BankDetails.AccountNumber <> etc
               error = 'etc..'
               return *off
       endif

       If BankDetails.BankCode <> etc
               error = 'etc..'
               return *off
       endif
/end-free

Caller : IF not CheckBankDetails ( DSBank );
               //Now what?
          Endif;

On returning from this procedure, how can the display manager program position the cursor on the first incorrectly filled information using an indicator and DSPATR(PC)?



Thanks.
