  • 1.  How to display pop up message in window over existing display file

    Posted Thu October 12, 2023 12:13 PM

    Hi,

    I want to display a pop up window over existing display file.

    and in this pop up window i want to display some message like "Item found Accept Item? (Y/N) -

    if i enter 'Y' then accept this item and if i enter 'N'  then clear this field.

    So any suggestion how can i display it ?

    Thanks

    Hi.
    Just create a new record in the DSPF, with type WINDOW, and display it like another record.
    Be carefull with keyword USRRSTDSP and RMVWDW

    Hi, 

    One of my rpg programs is displaying the red X bottom left of the screen after the display file is called. What could be triggering that? I tried to put the pgm in debug but it doesn't help finding the issue. 

    Thanks.
