Re: Retrive if Enter or Field Exit was pressed

Sorry, I misread you original question. The Field Exit does not return an
AID code as by itself, it does not return control to the program.
AFIK, there is no method available vie RPGLE to test for the Field Exit key
returning control via the CHECK(ER) keyword.

What is the AID code for 'Field Exit'?
'Enter' is x'F1'

I know I can request Field Exit Required on the FFW, but I didn't
realise it was also available as an AID code.

I have a display with a field the CHECK(ER) Keyword (Automatic Record

pressed ?
