 Adding a call to a new program via RPGLE
Display File, RPG Display File, RPGLE, RPGLE Program
I am adding a call from an existing program to a program that I've just written.  I use a command key from the existing program to call the new one.  That works just fine, but when I exit my program it returns to the origianl screen with just the data on the screen.  I don't know if it's a display file keyword I'm missing or an issue with a return statement on my called program.

Software/Hardware used:
RPGLE

Hi, did you set on the INLR indicator before exit your program? It is not clear what screen you are viewing after exit the program, it is the new program or the existing program screen?

Are you saying your are running program A and then do a CMD key to call program B.
Then when you F3(exit) from program B, you want also exit program A?

First thing to verify is whether or not the display file was created with RSTDSP(*YES) specified or not. This can be checked by running DSPFD FILE(filename) TYPE(*ATR) against the display file. Scrolling down to the ‘Display Attributes’ section, there should be a line showing ‘Restore display . . .’ with either *YES or *NO as the value.

If it shows *NO, you might be able to change the attribute with CHGDSPF FILE(filename) RSTDSP(*YES).

If that doesn’t help, more details will be needed.
