Re: [sqr-users] how to print headers and footers dyanmically with different sizes

[Don Mellen <donm@ontko.com>]

Sounds like a classic example of needing the ALTER-REPORT command.  If you
have SQR 6.0 or higher, the syntax is....

ALTER-REPORT
[HEADING = t_heading_name] 
[HEADING-SIZE = n_new_size] 
[FOOTING = t_footing_name] 
[FOOTING-SIZE = n_new_size] 

HTH,
