<h1 class="topictitle1">DFTVAL (Default Value) keyword for display files</h1>
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to specify a default value for an
output-capable field.</p>
<div class="section"><p>On the first output operation, the specified value is displayed
if the option indicator is on or has not been specified. Otherwise, the program
value is used. On subsequent output operations, the program value appears.</p>
<p>The
format of the keyword is:</p>
<pre>DFTVAL('value')</pre>
<p>This
keyword is valid on output-only (O) or output-input (B) fields.</p>
<p>You
can only use this keyword to initialize named fields. It is not allowed on
constant fields.</p>
<p>Since the maximum number of characters on a DDS statement
is 5000, this keyword, along with any other keywords specified on the DDS
statement, must contain less than 5000 characters.</p>
<p>You cannot use this
keyword in a subfile format (SFL keyword).</p>
<p>You cannot specify the DFTVAL
keyword on the same field with a DFT, EDTCDE (Edit Code), or EDTWRD (Edit
Word) keyword, or on a floating-point field.</p>
<p>Option indicators are valid
for this keyword.</p>
</div>
<div class="example"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example</h4><p>The following example shows how to specify
the DFTVAL keyword.</p>
<pre>|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8
A R RECORD1
A 50 PUTOVR
A FIELD1 3A B 12 01DFTVAL('AAA') OVRDTA
A FIELD2 3D 0O 12 05OVRDTA
A 10 DFTVAL('000')
A FIELD3 3D 0O 12 09DFTVAL('000') OVRDTA
A</pre>
<p>In this example, before displaying the record, the application
program assigns ZZZ to FIELD1, 999 to FIELD2, and 456 to FIELD3. On the first
output operation, AAA 000 000 displays if indicator 10 is on; AAA 999 000
displays if indicator 10 is off.</p>
<p>The workstation user types XXX into
FIELD1. On the second output operation, XXX 999 456 displays if indicator
50 is on; AAA 000 000 displays if indicator 50 is off and indicator 10 was
on during the first output operation. AAA 999 000 displays if
indicator 50 is off and indicator 10 was off during the first output operation.</p>
