Window and Display Features


Field Attributes

There are two types of fields you can define:

  • Protected fields are for constants on the screen.

  • Unprotected fields accept data entry.

If the field consists of a character string in quotes, it is protected. If the field is a variable name, it is not protected unless you specify PROTECT=YES as a field option. If you want all fields protected, specify the NOINPUT group option in the DISPLAY statement.
