Re: any way to jump BACK a page?

[Scott Barnes <sbarnes@MAIL.WESLEYAN.EDU>]

Much in the same way SQR prints pages numbers in the format page 1 of 30
you can do this.
What you will need to do is have temp variables that hold the total you
want and one more to tell the procedure to skip printing when you run
through the program the first time.  If this is a fast program this should
be no problem.  Have you main procedure call the other procedures twice.
around your calls to print procedures include code like this

if $print_first = 'Y'
  add #col1 to #tot1
  add #col2 to #tot2
  ...
else
  do print_my_data
end-if

in print_my_data add the line
print #tot1 (,,)
...
in the appropriate place.

An alternative would be to use your database to get the totals, and just use a
begin-select
sum(col1)  &tot1
from Table_one
where ...
end-select

then print the &tot1 in the appropriate places.

Just some thoughts,
there are many ways you can do this!!
