Re: Reading a subfile with no changed records on it

["Lim Hock-Chai" <Lim.Hock-Chai@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Your will need to use a combination of two keywords on your DDS,
RTNCSRLOC(&csrFmtName &csrFldName) and SFLCSRRRN(&SFLCSRRRN).

RTNCSRLOC(&csrFmtName &csrFldName) tells you what format and field your
cursor is at.  The SFLCSRRRN(&SFLCSRRRN) tells you which subfile RRN#
your cursor is at.

So, the logic would look something like below (Note: I have not tested
it yet):

If csrFmtName ='MYSFLFMT' and 
   csrFldName = 'LOT#' and
   SFLCSRRRN <> 0;
  chain(n) SFLCSRRRN mySFLFMT;
  if %found();
    //prompt it 
  endif;
Endif;
