</div>
<p>The Set Field (QsnSetFld) API defines an input field on the screen at the
given row and column. The following occurs when this command is issued to the
control unit as a direct operation or when the buffer containing the command is
written out:</p>
<ul>
<li>Any outstanding AID requests are cleared.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>The keyboard is locked.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>If there is an entry in the format table whose starting address is equal to
the address for this field, then that entry is modified. The FFW of the
existing entry is replaced by the new FFW and the previous screen starting
attribute is overlaid with the new screen starting attribute. The ending screen
attribute is not rewritten. All FCWs and the length parameter are ignored. See
the 5250 data stream documentation for details.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>If no entry can be found in the table for the field being defined, a new
entry will be added to the end of the table. However, the address must be
greater than the ending address of the field currently defined last in the
format table or an error will occur. If the new entry is valid, it will contain
the field's FFW, the optional FCWs, and the field's starting and ending
address. An error will occur if an attempt is made to define too many fields on
the screen (see the 5250 data stream documentation for details).</li>
</ul>
<p>The display address after this operation will be the starting field address
minus 1 if row and column are specified as valid positive integers or if this
is the first field specified within the current WTD command. Otherwise, the
display address will be one position past the ending screen attribute.</p>
<p>This command corresponds indirectly to the 5250 Write to Display (WTD)
command with a Set Buffer Address order and a Start of Field order if the row
and column parameters are specified. (For an indirect operation, a WTD is
placed in the command buffer only if one does not already exist in that
buffer.)</p>
<br>
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<p>None</p>
<br>
<h3>Restrictions</h3>
<p>The same restrictions apply as for the Write Data (QsnWrtDta) API, with the
exception that the trailing field attribute can be written past the end of the
screen. (It will be suppressed by the control unit.)</p>
<br>
<h3>Omissible Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Field ID</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The field ID to be associated with this field. The value specified can be
any nonzero integer value. For APIs that accept a field ID parameter, this
value can be subsequently used instead of the row and column parameter to
specify a screen address. If the given ID is already defined, this operation
will redefine that field ID with the values specified. To remove a field ID
definition, use the QsnDltFldId API.</p>
<p>If a previously defined field ID is supplied and some or all of the
parameters are omitted, the field is defined using the current field definition
values for those omitted parameters.</p>
<p>If this field is omitted or specified with a value of zero, then no field ID
is associated with this field description.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Field length</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The length of the field being defined. If no field ID is specified, the
length must be a positive integer value greater than 1 for signed numeric
fields and greater than 0 for all other field types. The entire field must fit
on the display. If a field ID is specified with a nonzero value, the length may
be 0, in which case a field will not be defined on the screen; however, this
will associate the field definition with the specified field ID.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Row</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The row at which to define the field. The row parameter must refer to a row
no greater than the current screen or window mode height (if window mode is
enabled). The actual screen row used for a screen I/O operation is calculated
using the formula base+offset=actual. The base is the row location of the top
window border (0 for full screen) if offset is positive, or the row location of
the bottom window border (screen height plus 1 for full screen) if offset is
negative. The offset is the row parameter value specified, and actual is the
actual screen row to be used. A CPFA307 error occurs if an incorrect row value
is specified.</p>
<p>The starting field address will be the row and column locations given if
both parameters are specified. Otherwise, it will be the current display
address plus 1. If this is the case and the command is a direct operation, or
the buffer specified does not contain a preceding output operation that sets
the display address, the current display address is set to row 1, column 1,
prior to writing the initial screen attribute and the field definition. The
ending field address for this field is the starting field address plus the
field length.</p>
<p>If a field ID is supplied along with a row and column, the row and column
parameters will be stored as specified. These parameters will be used as
relative or actual screen positions on a subsequent operation, depending upon
the window mode setting for the environment supplied with that operation.</p>
<p>If a previously undefined field ID is supplied with this operation, the row
and column parameters must be specified. Also, the row and column parameters
must both be specified or omitted; one cannot be specified if the other is
omitted. A CPFA307 error occurs if an incorrect cursor position is specified.
On some devices, row and column can both be specified as 1, which will cause
the field to be defined at row 1, column 1, with a screen attribute of normal
(X'20'). If this is the case, then any initial screen attribute parameters
specified are ignored. This is only supported by certain devices. Whether or
not this is supported can be determined by the Query 5250 (QsnQry5250) API.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Column</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The column at which to write the data. The column parameter must refer to a
column no greater than the current screen or window mode width (if window mode
is on). The actual screen column used for a screen I/O operation is calculated
using the formula base+offset=actual. The base is the column location of the
left window border (0 for full screen) if offset is positive, or the column
location of the center window border (screen width plus 1 for full screen) if
offset is negative. The offset is the column parameter value specified, and
actual is the actual screen column to be used. A CPFA307 error occurs if an
incorrect column value is specified.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Field format word (FFW)</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(2)
<p>The field format word is a 2-byte value that controls the type of the field
being defined. <a href="#TBLFFW">Table 6</a> shows the field types, and the
corresponding bit to be set for each type. To omit this parameter, specify
X'00' in both characters of the parameter. You must specify this parameter to
define an input field, and it is required if a field control word is
specified.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Field control words (FCW)</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(*)
<p>An array of 2-byte field control words. The field control words are 2-byte
values that request certain functions to be performed. <a href="#TBLFCW">Table
7</a> shows the valid field control word values, their function, and mnemonics
for those values.</p>
<p>The 5250 CCSID-based I/O specific FCWs are not allowed (<a href=
"QsnSetFldCC.htm">QsnSetFldCC</a> must be used to create CCSID-capable fields).
If the CCSID-based I/O CCSID or Maximum data length FCWs are given here, a
CPFA332 will result. FCWs will not be exhaustivly checked to see if they are
formatted correctly or to see if the function requested is valid for the
current device. However, some FCWs are checked against the support provided by
the device and a CPFA306 signaled if an incompatibility is found. <a href=
"#TBLDEVFCW">Table 8</a> shows the display capablility and FCW combinations
that are valid.</p>
<p>Errors not found here may be detected and reported when the FCW is required
during subsequent command and keystroke processing. See the 5250 data stream
documentation for further details about the meaning and use of these
functions.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Number of field control words</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The number of control words in the field control word array. Omitting this
parameter or specifying it with a value of 0 indicates that no field control
words are specified with the FCW parameter. If this parameter is specified with
a nonzero value, the FCW parameter is required; if the FCW parameter is
omitted, a CPFA31E error is issued.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Monochrome attribute</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(1)
<p>The initial screen attribute for monochrome displays. A screen attribute is
required for defining a field on the screen; if this parameter is omitted and
monochrome attributes are to be used, X'20' is assumed. The initial screen
attribute is written one position to the left of the starting field address.
The ending screen attribute (X'20') is supplied by the controller and written
at the end-of-field address plus 1.</p>
<p>The monochrome attribute and color attribute parameters consist of 1 byte
that will be used as the screen attribute for a monochrome or a color display,
respectively. One of these parameters will be selected based on the underlying
display type, and the other will be discarded. See <a href=
"dsm1e.htm#HDRSCRATTR">Screen Attribute Characters</a> for a description of
the screen attribute values.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Color attribute</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(1)
<p>The initial screen attribute for color displays. A screen attribute is
required for defining a field on the screen; if this parameter is omitted and
color attributes are to be used, X'20' is assumed. See <a href=
"dsm1e.htm#HDRSCRATTR">Screen Attribute Characters</a> for a description of
the screen attribute values.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Command buffer handle</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>A handle for the command buffer in which to store the command. If this
parameter is omitted or specified as 0, this is a direct operation and the
starting field address will be the supplied location. Otherwise, this is an
indirect operation and the command is stored in the command buffer without an
I/O operation taking place.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Low-level environment handle</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The low-level environment that the operation applies to. If this parameter
is omitted or given with a value of zero, the default low-level environment is
used.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Error code</strong></dt>
<dd>I/O; CHAR(*)
<p>The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the
structure, see <a href="../apiref/error.htm#hdrerrcod">Error Code Parameter</a>. If this
parameter is omitted, diagnostic and escape messages are issued to the
application.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Returned Value</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Return code</strong></dt>
<dd>OUTPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>A return code indicating the result of the operation. The value returned
will be 0 if the operation was successful, or -1 otherwise.</p>
</dd>
</dl>

filled with zero. Characters are center-adjusted and spaces are zero-filled.
The fill character will appear on the display.
<p>center-adjust is only activated by keying the Field Exit, Field +, or Field
- keys. The field is center-adjusted from the first non-null character to the
left of the cursor when one of these keys is depressed. If a center-adjust
field is left through cursor movement keys, the field will remain as is (not
center-adjusted). center-adjust fields longer than 15 characters might cause a
slow response that would result in a keyboard overrun. A center-adjust
specified field has an implied field exit required function.</p>
<p>The Dup key will fill a center-adjust field from the cursor to the end of
the field with the Dup character (X'1C'), but the field will not be
center-adjusted. After typing the first character into a center adjust field,
but prior to exiting the field (using cursor movement or exit keys), the Enter
key will cause an operator error to be posted; that is, Enter is invalid from
an active center-adjust field.</p>

posting by the controller, as long as no data is entered into the field.
<p>The Dup key will fill the field from the cursor to the end of field with the
Dup characters X'2C', and then the entire field will be checked for any nulls
(an error is posted if a null is found). A mandatory fill field with nulls can
be returned under the following conditions:</p>
<ol>
<li>The field was initialized with nulls and with the MDT bit on.</li>
<li>The Erase Input, Field Exit, or Field + key is used from the first position
of the field. The field is filled with nulls and the MDT bit is set on.</li>
