Mandatory Field on Display File in AS400
I have a display file with mandatory fields. Is there anyway that i can highlight those fields to bring attention to the user? The same behavior that AS400 makes when we attempt to execute a command without completing all the required parameters. Note: I have used DSPATR(HI) or DSPATR(RI) and they have different behaviors. Thanks.
