Hello,

Are you expecting (hoping?) that someone is just going to write code for you?

We are here to help but not actually do the work for you?

After reading the info mentioned, what have you tried? Just thinking about it will not change it. When you try something that does not work, you need to post what you tried and what happened.

Hopefully, you understand that the immediate problem is your panel. If you try things that are Not fixing the panel, the problem will continue.

and
|  AREA(DYNAMIC)
...
|ZDATA01,ZSHAD01


You defined a vertical bar as a attribute character for a dynamic area and using the attribute character has certain requirements (read the manual, or even just read the message you received). You have used it in several places, such as the ZDATA01 line. You need to fix all occurrences.
