QUICK problem

[Robert J.M. Edis]

G'day Santo

I believe MPE is keeping a 'copy' of the data file in memory for fast
access.  I think if you delete (purge) the subfile after the use by QTP then
the memory 'copy' will also be gone.  You can then recreate the subfile
using the next data value for the next QTP call.

I'm not an MPE expert so please excuse my ignorance those who are.  :)

I am having a problem with a quick screen process I am developing.  Quick
run down of the process. Environment PowerHouse  8.19.C3 MPEix C.60.00 Image
database.  
A designer procedure from screen A calls a QTP program that builds a
temporary subfile.  Screen A passes to the QTP parameters via a Image direct
file.  Screen B simply displays the info from the subfile.  

Problem.  Screen A, enter in "P02".  QTP program executes, Screen B displays
the proper info from the subfile.   Exist screen  B, return to Screen A.
Enter in "P04", QTP executes, screen B displays the data found in the
original subfile.  The bottom line is screen B is only showing the data
created by the original subfile.  

I exit and check the temporary subfile and direct file.  The direct file
contains the last passed data.  The subfile contains the data to match the
last passed data.  But, screen B is displaying the data from the original
subfile.

What gives???
