[sqr-users] Re: Wrap Command

[Robert Foster <robert.foster@radiology.msu.edu>]

Nitha,

There might be two things happening here. If you are looking at the
report as plain text then you may be overwriting the text with another
print command. If this is diplaying in a web browser then it could have
something to do with the html formatting.

Also, I question the value of 200 in your print command. Does this not
mean that you are printing on the current line at position 200? For a
printed page the usual width is 80 characters, 200 would be far beyond
that. I you are using a very wide line width of say 300 then your print
command would print text from position 200 to 230 then wrap to the next
line and start at 200 again, print 30 more characters, then go to the
next line to a maximum of 5 lines.

If the above is happening, and then you view the resulting report in a
web browser, it's a toss up as to how it would display.
