Re: Getting the field attributes of a subfile record

Hi, Chandan:

The way I have handled this in the past, is to have hidden fields that hold
the special attributes.  For example, if I use *IN31 to indicate RI, then I
will put a hidden field into the subfile, and call it IN31.  Before each
subfile (RE)WRITE, I'd have:
    MOVE *IN31    IN31
and after each subfile READ I'd have:
    MOVE IN31  *IN31
