QAD Status Bar

[jdaniel052]

Good Morning,
Ive created a new maintenance screen in QAD. How do I update the status bar at the bottom to include the F5=Delete.
Thanks.

Hi Jeff

When you want to change the status line information use the following technique

First use {mfdeclre.i} or {mfdtitle.i}

In mfdeclre.i the following variables have been defined:

define {1} shared variable stline as character format "x(78)" extent 13.
define {1} shared variable ststatus as character format "x(78)".

stline contains the message retrieved from the messsage master in the language of the user.

ststatus is the last one used.

Example programlines:

ASSIGN ststatus = stline[2].
STATUS INPUT ststatus.
​

Check all 13 default values and have fun!!
