Re: Problem with readc

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For READC:
Add a new field, such as "ACTION" and when F8 is chosen, make the value 
of ACTION = 'F8ON'.

Then on the next cycle you can check to see if ACTION = 'F8ON'.  If it 
is on, use the new values to update your record.  Also, don't forget to 
make ACTION = " ".

I prefer to not use READC because of this and similar issues.
I add a hidden field to the subfile record which is a data structure of 
all the data fields.  Then when I process the subfile, I read every 
subfile record and compare contents to the original values in the data 
structure and make the needed changes.
