The following are attributes for all fields:
Use this attribute to specify that the field is to blink when it is displayed.
Use this attribute to specify that each position of the field is to be displayed with a vertical bar at its left and right edge. When specified for a nondisplay field, the separators are displayed even though there are no characters between them. You can use column separators to precisely indicate cursor positioning within a field and to indicate the length of an otherwise blank field.
Use this attribute to specify that the field is to be intensified (highlighted) when it is displayed on the display.
Use this attribute to specify that the field is not to be displayed; the display positions for this field appear blank. The attribute can be used for passwords or other security-sensitive data. If the print function (permitted by specifying the PRINT keyword) is performed, nondisplay fields are not printed.
Use this attribute to position the cursor to the first character position of the field you are defining. You can specify this attribute for several fields, and the cursor will be positioned at the first selected field with this attribute. Note that the fields within a record are ordered in line/position sequence as they appear on the display and not necessarily in the order you specify them.
Use this attribute to specify that the image of the field is to be reversed from the other portion of the screen when it is displayed. Whether the screen is light-on-dark or dark-on-light depends on the status of the display prior to displaying the field. This setting is controlled by the work station user.
Use this attribute to specify that the field is to be underlined when it is displayed. All input-capable fields are underlined by default. See the CHGINPDFT keyword to prevent the default underlining. (If CHGINPDFT is specified, DSPATR(UL) must be specified to underline an input-capable field.) If DSPATR(UL) is specified with option indicators and the option indicators are not satisfied (DSPATR(UL) not selected), the field appears without underline.
