I was fixing a subfile at work that has some odd characteristics. The reason I was working on it was that it had a standard 2 line subfile but the sfldrop keyword wasn't there. I added it, it worked. So far so good, but then it was returned to me from QA for a clearing thing. When I started looking at it in more detail I saw that if in a preceding screen the user chose to see comments from a different file, the lines were just added to the field name for the first line in the subfile. Since you have no way of knowing how many comments might be added, there is no way for the sfldrop to work predictably. (If you do press F1 for more info, you get the second line alternating with the comments from the additional file.) Maybe this can't work but I'd be curious if anyone else has solved this type of problem.
