When changing an entry in a window I receive the W556 message:

"QOPTION cannot be executed it is not in the dictionary". The system then terminates. I have checked the dictionary of the file associated with the window and confirmed the QOPTION field is defined. The problem occurs when I try to redisplay the window using wc_display_action% 5/6/7/9.

All help would be appreciated to track down the problem.

Mark,

I have seen this before when a process behind the window changes the value of @DICT. This is set by the window when it is first started, but it can be changed behind the scenes.

From the debugger, if you check the value of @DICT it will tell you which dictionary it thinks it is looking at.

I have seen some implementations of POP.UP within template processes which change @DICT. As a matter of course all my popup routines save @DICT prior to the popup being used and restore it after @ANS has been set to the popup return value.

This may be unrelated to your problem, but it's another place to look.
