Hi Darryl
You don't say how wide these 5 columns are
If they are greater than 80 columns - then I believe you are SOL, and HAVE to remain on *DS4 - unless you are thinking of a way to toggle the display left and right
AND
Unless someone comes along and proves I don't know what I am talking about

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Switching display sizes depending on the screen capabilities *DS3 and *DS4
I am working on a new DSPF after having not written one in 10 years. I have a subfile that is busy with SFLLIN(2) giving me 5 columns for the users to enter into.
Some users have complained that the characters are too small for the screens they have. I am trying to see if I can switch the screen sizes from *DS4 to
*DS3 based on a F-Key selected by the user. I find the screen size setting is defined at the file level.
Can I specify the screen size using a f-key or would I have to have 2 DSPF's, 1 for each screen size?
TIA
