Re: Subfile (20 rows, 4 columns per page) arrow keys to move between sfl records

I do believe you are correct in that I cannot capture the arrow keys...
yet, there are no input fields in the subfile record, but there is on the
STLCTL (at the bottom of screen)

the purpose is:
the cursor is at bottom of screen on the SFLCTL field... (input new rows)
however, If the user mouse clicks, or presses enter on a sfl row, we jump
to that rows detail information...

some people are not "mousey" and would rather use arrow keys; but the tab
key may be the only alternative.

Pretty certain the arrow keys aren't captured in the 5250 stream. Why
won't the tab and back tab keys work? If there are no input fields in the
subfile record, you may need to create one for the purpose you are trying
to achieve. What purpose is accomplished by getting the cursor on a
specific record?
