Re: Positioning cursor on a subfile record

Bill,
I am nor sure, but if you make the field I/O with CHGINPDFT and DSPATR(PR)
with the DSPATR(PC) conditioned based on an indicator that you set on only
when you want the cursor on the line and updating the record,
along with setting the SFLRCDNBR field to that record number, that might
work.

Jeff,

Doing that. I've got DSPATR(PC) set up with an indicator for the field in
question here. I turn it on in this error situation. Does it matter that
the field is output-only? Thanks for the reply.

Bill,
After you retrieve the record, you need to update it with a DSPATR(PC)
enabled for at least one field.

Hello all,

I'm having the darndest time getting this to work. I have a subfile

that

has several fields. The first is an output field. Our program logic
dictates that if the cursor is on a particular line in the subfile (at

this

output field) and F1 is pressed, logic occurs to do things with that
specific record. That all works fine. In some cases the user hitting

F1

on a particular record is an error. I'm generating an error message

that

displays at the bottom of the screen and THAT all works fine. I'd

like

to

position the cursor on the subfile row that the user hit F1 on in this
situation but no matter what I try it doesn't seem to work. I've got

the

subfile set up with the SFLRCDNBR(CURSOR) keyword and also the

SFLCSRRRN()

keyword and I'm moving the field value that goes along with SFLCSRRRN

to

the SFLRCDNBR field and updating the subfile. STILL doesn't work.

Does

it have to do with the fact that it's an output field I'm trying to
position it on? Because I've made it an input field and that's not
working either. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Bill
