I'm trying opened an egl part using F3 and nothing happens.

DAC10W1_IO_RECORD.CD_DEPTO = DEPARTMENT.CD_DEPTO;

The cursor is  positioned under variable field CD_DEPTO not opened when press F3.

If cursor is positioned under record part DAC10W1_IO_RECORD opened when press F3.

  try
    get DEPARTMENT
      with ...
  end

The cursor is  positioned  under record part DEPARTMENT not opened when press F3

converse APP01M2 ;

The cursor is  positioned  under textform part APP01M2 not opened when press F3

I believe you are using version 9.5.

This has been fixed and I can provide the fixtest. The feature was erroneously removed as part of the jsf removal.

Please email me at jeffdouglas@us.ibm.com and I'll provide the fixtest for you.

Hi Jeff,

Unfortunately I am still using RBD 9.1.1.

Do I need opened PMR to get a fix for this version ?

Thanks for reply.

It wasn't broken by the jsf removal in that version. Only 9.5, so the fixtest won't help.

The F3 open selection function requires that the project IRs be there. I suggest that maybe you do a project clean and have the IRs refreshed. Then let's see what happens.

The reason you are getting a beep if because the field you are trying to do an F3 open on is not bound yet. This is because the code is in a top level function. The variables are not resolved until the program is compiled for generation. A top level function is different than a nested function. The record variable in a top level function is unknown until the program that starts it all is compiled.

If the function that has DAC10W1_IO_RECORD.CD_DEPTO = DEPARTMENT.CD_DEPTO; in it was part of a nested function instead, then it would know all about the variable and F3 would work.

This is the way that the EGL editor has worked in the part and nothing is technically wrong.
