    • To store savekey data in screen fields, specify which screen field or fields to use for storing savekey data as follows:
      • For a single occurrence of data only (for the Update, Delete, or Next actions), from the Non Repeated Savekey drop-down list, click a field in which to store savekey information.
      • For a repeated record block only (for the Update, Delete, Forward, or Backward actions), from the Repeated Row Savekey drop-down list, click a repeated record block.
      • For both a single occurrence of data in a repeated record block, from the For All Savekeys, click a field.

      In the field to the right of the drop-down list for the field you selected, type a size for the field.
