INFLD Default Type Codes

Scroll Prev Top Next More

Rewritten October 2024

Each time the INFLD subroutine is called, whether directly or indirectly, such as via SBXINP, an INPUT statement, the command line, etc., in addition to any type codes explicitly passed it will append a set of default type codes that can be defined in two ways:

Via the SBR=INFDEF directive in the system  configuration file (affecting all users)
Via a SET INFDEF command (overriding the system configuration and affecting just that user)

You can disable the default codes at the individual field level by specifying the m type code.  And you can display the combined set of codes (explicit plus default) by hitting CTRL+\ within a field.
