SETBYPOS

The SETBYPOS command sets the value of a field on the current aXes terminal screen by reference to the screen row and column number and may (optionally) send the current aXes screen data to the aXes terminal server. It is analogous to typing at a 5250 terminal.

Note: You usually need to specify SERVICE_EXCHANGE(*FIELD) in the command string in order to receive the return values into your client program variables named on keywords beginning with RTNxxx. Refer to 5.41.2 Using the AxesTerminalService for more information.
