Mike, wouldn't that control the field to be always highlighted? always reverse?

I think the .ATTR along with some panel rexx logic can alter the field display based on what is being displayed in a dynamic area ?

John,

The .ATTR control variable in the panel definition can be used to
dynamically change the display attribute of a field in a panel.
body or area section. One of the things it can be set to is  the name of a
dialog variable, preceded by an ampersand. The
variable must contain the name of an input or output field that occurs in
the panel body, .CURSOR, or a blank.  Examples:

.ATTR (.CURSOR) = COLOR(YELLOW) HILITE(REVERSE)
.ATTR (&FLD)    = HILITE(&HLTE)
.ATTR (&FLD)    = PAS(ON)

I am writing an ISPF application in REXX which does some RACF work. One
function is to display the RACF ID of users with specific characters in
their NAME field. Mainly because user managers ask us to do something, like REVOKE, but don't know their ID. I have this coded already. But what I'd
like to do is change the INTENS to either LOW or HIGH depending whether
they are REVOKED or not in the list of IDs which match the search criteria.
I don't see a way to do this. I think it would be helpful.

Any ideas? Oh, yes, as always, we a very back level at release 1.12 of
z/OS. We are still "going away this year" as we have for about the last 10.
