Using extended ACCEPT/DISPLAY statements and TRANSACTION files in the same program is not recommended. If extended ACCEPT/DISPLAY statements are used in the same program as TRANSACTION files, then the TRANSACTION file should be closed when the extended ACCEPT/DISPLAY statements are performed. Unpredictable results will occur if an extended ACCEPT/DISPLAY statement is performed when a TRANSACTION file is open. A severe error may be generated or data on the workstation may be overlapped or intermixed.
