What you are experiencing has nothing to do with whether the fields are
contiguous in the file definition. And, given the same fields, but set
contiguously in the definition, you will see the exact same behavior.
The problem you are experiencing is due to the fact that you have given the
fields different group letters, making the separate and distinct. Within
the event for one of the I* groups, only references to fields in the I*
group will be affected by @AF.
I guarantee that if you look at the files where this is "working" that you
will see that all of the fields are in the same group. (ie: "I1)", "I2)",
and "I3)", rather than "I2)", "D2)", and "Q2)".)
