Error description

  • Error DescriptionÏ
    Client is in FM 3.13 and issues the SORT CHANGED command.
    
    From the correctly sorted list of copybook members in the
    PDS(E), he types 'V' or some similar line command, for
    multiple members.
    
    Instead of presenting the members in the order shown on the
    screen, it presents them in alphabetical order.
    order.
    
      e.g.
      After sorting, the list contains the following with the
      associated line commands:
    
                  V  C_MEMBER
                  v  A_MEMBER
                     F_MEMBER
                  V  G_MEMBER
                     Z_MEMBER
                  v  D_MEMBER
    
    Instead of viewing the C_MEMBER first, he's put in View on
    A_MEMBER.  When leaving that member, he's next put into view on
    C_MEMBER followed by D_MEMBER and G_MEMBER.
    
    Similar issues are involved with the S line command and mixtures
    of V and S line commands.
