Jon,
I grew up through S3 mod 15 days to rpgle and have taught several
programmers through
trial and error how to code rpg subfiles. I myself originally struggled
with the "old" concepts but when
I started telling "kids" what a subfile was it usually took a while. My
latest "newbie" was confused at
first but when I showed him what your example was last year he just ate it
up. Took to it like duck to water.
I've never had that experience and now he's by far the best programmer
I've had the pleasure to train.
So, my thought is that if you "grew up" with rpg you might not have an
easy time "getting" what
the latest rpgle stuff can do. You almost have to un-train yourself to
appreciate what you have
shown us. Just a thought.

Jon,
The week that article came out our shop tried it, liked it and have
looked back. We stopped using hidden everything and just use likerecmethod
and eval-corr for inquiry and maintenance. Love it!

Boy you guys like to make it complicated!
Read this for a much simpler approach

The example there is for a single record update but the exact same
can be used when handling subfiles. The only time I would ever considerof
using hidden fields for this purpose in a subfile is if that “subfile”
were a web page and I was using to hold state information.

Your response is a great response and is well said.
I'd add this: I define a data structure made up of the input-capable
write the subfile record I also populate OrigFields, which becomes a
hidden field in the subfile record.
That provides:work station in the interim between the unlocked read and the locked
- an easy two-field compare,
- allows an easily implemented F5-Refresh,
- an easy way to check if any updated fields were changed at another
chain.
