Re: Headings question???



All,

Haven't seen a solution to this problem posted yet.  I'd like to throw my issue 
into the ring.  I have a batch of SQR reports that I run nightly, and every 
report seems to always skip one line between the report heading and the report 
body, but only on every page AFTER the first page.  Has anyone else seen this 
happen?  I have tried adjusting both the page width and page length, but this 
didn't seem to help.

I am using SQR V4.0.2 under Solaris (SunOS 5.6), and printing to PostScript 
printer type and then distilling to PDF.

- Mark

                Here's a bit more on my problem:

                Example:

                Here is my page one:
                Line 1: Heading info
                Line 2:         Heading info
                Line 3:         Heading info
                Line 4:         Heading info
                Line 5:         Heading info
                Line 6:         Heading info
                Line 7:         Heading info
                Line 8:         Heading info
                Line 9:         Heading info
                Line 10:        blank line
                Line 11:                ???
                Line 12:                ???
                Line 13:                ???
                Line 14:                ???
                Line 15:  My first "non-heading" print statement ( example: 
print &itemnum
                (, 1) )

                Here is my page2(or higher):
                Line 1: Heading info
                Line 2:         Heading info
                Line 3:         Heading info
                Line 4:         Heading info
                Line 5:         Heading info
                Line 6:         Heading info
                Line 7:         Heading info
                Line 8:         Heading info
                Line 9:         Heading info
                Line 10:        blank line
                Line 11:                My first "non-heading" print statement 
( example:
                print &itemnum (, 1) )

                My question is why do I have blank lines after my heading is 
done and the
                data starts, on ONLY my first page...

                Thanks for your help...
                Matt

                        I think I've been bitten by this in the past...
                        If you try to print past the page length, SQR will 
break the page on
                its own
                        but not redo the headings. We always have to check if 
the current
                line >
                        page length.

                        (If I understand what you're asking)
                        :) Kristin

Page one

But, then,
                pages 2 and
                        > higher actually conform to the 10 line heading.  I
