Re: Position SFL at first empty record on each page

[Robert Mullis <robertmullis99@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Letting the subfile control the paging is not going to allow your 
program to control the cursor, because when you press pagedown (or 
pageup) the subfile changes the screen, not your program.  You have to 
programatically (sp?) control pageup and pagedown, so that each time 
they are pressed, your programs controls the displaying, not the 
subfile.  You can then change the cursor postion using the 
SFLRCDNBR(CURSOR) keyword.
