Justin,


The CSRLOC keyword does not return values ... it can be used to dynamically specify the cursor position on an output operation -- they are output values.

See:    https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_ibm_i_71/rzakc/rzakcmstdfcsrlc.htm

I believe you want to use the RTNCSRLOC keyword instead:

HTH,

I'm trying to determine what field the user just exited in a 5250 app.  I did some research and found that I should be able to retrieve the row/column position.  That should do it.  I added this to the DDS:
    A                                      CSRLOC(@ROW @COL)

After the EXFMT, those two fields are both zero.  The screen is a window, if that matters.


Any idea what to check?  Is there a better way to accomplish this?  You'll have to forgive me, I don't do a lot of 5250 apps these days.



TIA
