Re: wrap question



Thanks for the help, Gary.
The problem was I was writing "print &text_data ()" to print on the same
line after the previously printed data.
So, while tinkering with your advice, I wrote "print &text_data
(,{MAX_COLUMNS})"
and that did the trick.
All that was interesting info to store for later. Thanks again.

Bob

Regarding your wrap problem.
If you are using the WRAP to print data that includes the last column
position on the line, this will cause an implicit line feed. If this is
true increase line width by one or move your wrap to the left by one or
reduce the number of wrap positions printed by one.
If this does not work try using the Wrap Strip=<13><10>   to get rid of
line feed or carriage returns or check your source data for some special
characters.

I am wrapping lines starting at a certain column say, column X. After the
first line prints, the following lines that wrap start printing at the
first
column, column 1. I want them to wrap starting at column X, like the first
line.

Is there some way I can do this?



Below is (hopefully) an illustration of what I'm trying to say:

It is doing this:

                                XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

I want it to do this:

                                XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
                                XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
                                XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.




Thank you for any help,
