Re: [sqr-users] Need help with header

[Al H <star111lists@mindspring.com>]

If you are trying to create a flat file, as it looks, you will never
get a heading.  Heading is generated when a page break occurs. A flat
file will not have page breaks, therefore it will never generate a
heading.

Suggestion:

If you can get a count using a single select count(*) before creating
the flat file, do so.  Otherwise, write your data to a temporary table
to build the count, then write the output file from the work table
using open/write statements.
