Just to be clear, you want the subfile to pause as each line is painted on the screen? You might try compiling your display file with WAITRCD() RSTDSP(*YES) and doing a WRITE/READ on your control record instead of an EXMFT.

Subject: pausing a subfile
This seemed simple enough but it has me stumped.
I am adding lines to a subfile. I want the user to see each line as it is added, using sleep() instead of exfmt. (Thank you for the links on that earlier. Works great.)
Writing the new subfile record and then writing the control record and
sleep(1) seemed like the right choice. It apparently isn't. Any ideas?
