Re: page up/page down issue

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am not clear on how many formats/programs there are.  A main screen 
format with 2 maintenance window formats, one with a subfile?

In any event, one thought is to use
SFLEND(*SCRBAR *MORE) ***
with the subfiles and let users use a scrollbar to move the subfile(s) 
up and down.  That allows scrolling by a a few rows or a lot of rows.

As to the specific problem: is there code in the DDS for page up/page 
down?  If so, what happens if you comment that code out?  I ask that 
because my memory tells me that with subfiles, the less code the better.

Are you processing 2 formats at once, with a write followed by am 
exfmt/read?

*** it really is that simple as long as you leave 3 empty columns at the 
end of the subfile row.
