Re: Subfile indicator question...

I was saying so, an attribute accepts an indicator. Either you are not
setting it on or you are setting it off somewhere else before the write.
The use of the attribute byte on a display is for me more like
tutorial than practical.

I have a need to change the color attribute of a field in the subfile

record of a subfile, based on an indicator.

I'm doing this for ages in many load-all and load-paged SFLs.

If the total number is negative I need to change the color to Red. Now,

I would think that a simple 50 COLOR(RED) on that field would do the trick
prior to the sfl record write, BUT, that's evidently not supported.

You're wrong. This is perfectly supported and provably works exactly as
you describe. Your error must be somewhere else.

Add a DSPLY for *IN50 into the write-to-SFL-loop to see if the indicator
is actually set.

:wq! PoC
