SFLNXTCHG and Function Keys on Subfiles

[JMBauman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

<Then I do READC S01 to determine subfile changes - the user may choose to
<place a one in one or many of the option fields or select F4=List to
prompt
<on a reason code.

<Has anyone got an example of how this is done.  I tried the SFLNXTCHG
<indicator but in all the reading I have found it to be quite confusing and
<am encountering multiple problems with not knowing which relative record
<number I am at when selecting F4 etc.  Basically I am in a big mess.  I
<think I have two separate problems here.  1)  I don't have the SFLNXTCHG
<keyword processing correct in my RPG and 2)  I don't know how to process a
<function key on a subfile.

<All I want to do is be able to do an F4 on the reason and have the code
<returned from a selection list to the correct subfile line selected from
<and if there are any errors - eg the user enters in the wrong code then
<that line is highlighted and not processed and the subfile is re-written
<showing the errors and removing those items already processed.

<Any help would be appreciated.

<Regards

What a coincidence, I was trying to do the same thing last week.  I
realized that hitting F4 was not triggering a changed record so I changed
the program so the user was required to enter a special character to prompt
on a the subfile field.

I would rather use the F4.  How do I mark the record as changed when the
user hits F4?
