RE: Read multiple records in subfile window & update PF -- RPG400-L

Sharon,

You will need to add an "Option" input capable field to your SFL. The user
decides to load the first record in the subfile to field selection 6, they
would enter a 6 on the option line. The can select additional SFL entries
for the other field selections, specifying them by number. The program would
then enter a Do loop with READC to return all the selected entries. As you
READC, test the value of the OPT field to determine which field needs to
receive that selection (a SELECT group works well for this). Your window
will operate somewhat like the WRK*** commands that use the options field. 

If you need some pseudo-code to clarify, let me know.....

The prompt window is not a separate program.  It is a window subfile in the
1 program.  I know you can point and shoot with 1 cursor position or you can
select 1 subfile record from a window to update a PF and the main screen
displayed behind that window.  I have had a more difficult time locating
examples where you are selecting more than 1 item from the window subfile
and updating multiple items in the PF at the same time.

So all you need to do is pass six parms between the two programs (assuming
the popup is a separate pgm) and when your get back to your main pgm move
the six fields that your received from your popup to the appropriate fields
in your main pgm.

Does that make sense?  or maybe I am not understanding what you are asking.
Are you familiar with how to pass data back and forth between pgms?

Aaron,

The 2nd part of your interpretation is perfect.

Do you want the pop up window to continue to be displayed after they hit
enter and the screen in the background should be updated also? -or- after
they have made their selections the pop-up window disappears and you pass
back up to six values which will go to six different fields on the main
screen?

Good Morning!

I have been working on a program where the user will use F4 to prompt a
window subfile to pop up.  I want her to be able to select subfile records
using a 1,2,3,4,5,and 6.  Each number will correspond with fields such as
Feet1/Inch1, Feet2/Inch2, Feet3/Inch3, etc and populate fields located on
the screen behind the window when she presses enter.  The maximum number of
selections will be 6.

If I need to provide any additional information, please do not hesitate to
ask.  Any aid in programming for this would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks,
in advance, for your time!

Sharon
