What you're observing is the default behavior of ISPF dialogs from the dawn of time. Unfortunately I can't put my hands on an example right now, but if you want a panel to redisplay 'as before' with the same line on top, your dialog code needs to remember the line number of the top line and then reposition on the next display to put that line back at the top. There may some discussion of the technique in the ISPF manuals, but I haven't looked in a long time. Short answer is that you can do what you want, but you have to code for it. . .

When I scroll down to the line I want to update, insert the data into the input field and hit ENTER the panel is re-displayed as if it was scrolled back to the top. To verify that the data was correct I have to scroll down again. Does anyone know how to NOT cause a scrollable area to be repositioned to the top when the user hits ENTER? (other than re-writing the dialog and using a dynamic data area).
