Re: SFLNXTCHG head-scratcher

Today's machine speeds gives you the option of ignoring all of that logic. Add a hidden field to your subfile record and eval it to a data structure of the field(s) you are monitoring for change. Then, run a subroutine after the exfmt that loops through the entire subfile looking for records that are changed and deal with each change there. This removes a whole lot of subfile processing yet is still fast.

O.k., that would explain it.  Normally, this is how it should work.
However, this is not a "normal" program, and the update routine I posted in
my last post needs to run before the next EXFMT.  I would have expected the
RPG Reference to explain that an I/O on the subfile control record was
required before a READC would pick something up.
