There can be several reasons for that. Is it repeatable or does it seem

that were the case. Is the indicator set on before, and off after, each
clearing cycle?
It turns out that it's very repeatable. And while I was writing up a
detailed description for the List, I FOUND THE PROBLEM.
From the display file DDS (which I'd lifted, with very little
modification, from a utility I'd written to allow QuestView to generate
join-logicals at will):
A R FIELDSC SFLCTL(FIELDS)
. . .
A 52 SFLINZ
. . .
And as it happens, I'm using *IN52 for something else in this program (I
tend to use indicators that are multiples of 13 to indicate that
something failed, or "got unlucky"), and there was, so far as I know,
never any need to do a SFLINZ in this subfile, here or in the utility
whence it came. Sure enough, when the subfile worked, *IN52 was off, and
when it failed, *IN52 was on. So I looked, and found out that I was
using it for something completely different, and as soon as I took the
SFLINZ out of the display file, everything started working perfectly.
