How to output report to ASCII file with the report heading to appear only once per file? Please advise.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH

BstRgd,

If your Report Data contains less than ~999 detail records you can set up an ASCII Printer with page length 999.

Hope this helps,
Andreas

Or set the report layout data to layout type "before report" instead of "header"; like this it will print only once at the beginning of the report. In case you don't always print the report to file, and you DO want the headers when not printing to file, then you can make 2 duplicate conditional layouts:
1) before.report, condition is: not isspace(spool.fileout)
2) header, condition is: isspace(spool.fileout)

Gud one...!

Thank you all :)

Dear,

YOu can use the function lattr.pageno = 1 in output expression of the layout.

BstRgd,
Hello bkkland
Another way to do this, you can use before.report layout instead of header layout.
Before.report and After.report layout appears only once by report.

Good luck,
Rodolfo.
