RE: [sqr-users] Dynamic Heading Size

The ASK is something I didn't think about. At any rate, Ray's idea of
computing the extra heading size and then begin printing that much lower
worked nicely. Thanks for the help everyone.

Can you use a substitution variable? :
#DEFINE heading_size <integer>
or
ASK heading_size


begin-heading {heading-size}

I'm attempting to dynamically define the size of my header in run time. To
do this, in setup I declared an integer variable called #heading_size and
let this follow begin-heading. I initiate the #heading_size and it shows
nicely in #debug. However, I get the following error:

Error in include file "gsh_print_mar.sqr" on line 207:
   (SQR 5313) Qualifier 'heading lines' requires a integer value.
begin-heading #heading_size

Error in include file "gsh_print_mar.sqr" on line 207:
   (SQR 4103) Cannot find required numeric parameter.
begin-heading #heading_size

Errors were found in the program file.
SQR: Program Aborting.


I'm tempted to write it off as just one of the quirks of SQR, but is there
something that I'm missing or is this just not possible?

Thanks for any help.
