I have moved all of my SUB records to ASUB, so I don't have anything I use at the moment.

But here's an old snippet where I had to send a value to the .PROC field of an output waveform record so it would display properly in EDM.

This is just a starting point for you to do some testing... it's been so long I might be missing something here...

Cheers -m

static long copyopt(psub)
		struct subRecord *psub;
{
[..]
               /* code that creates a long string and shoves it into a waveform record .. */

                kk = 1;
	dbPutLink(&psub->inpd,DBR_SHORT,&kk,1); 	

} /* end of  copyopt(psub) */

where psub-> inpd refers to

[..]
field(INPD, "some_WF_record.PROC")
[..]
