RE: [sqr-users] Include and Variables

["Vito Campanelli" <vito.campanelli@mcgill.ca>]

Hi,

Just so I am clear, I have the following lines of code right now:
Alter-Printer Font=#font Point-Size=14
print 'Report Name' (1, 20) 

What you suggest is the following?

Do alt-print
print 'Institution Report for End of Term' (1, 20)

Is this correct? One more question, when I use the Alter-Printer
Font=#font Point-Size=14 the formatting in my report changes, there
appears to be extra lines, is this normal?

Wouldn't this be "cleaner" (and allow for varying conditions that may be
required):


Begin-procedure alt-print

  if $var = 'Y'
    Alter-Printer Font=902 Point-Size=14
  else
    Alter-Printer Font=902 Point-Size=10
  end-if

end-procedure alt-print


And wherever needed, a simple call:

  do alt-print


Also, designating a string for a text variable is enclosed in single
ticks
(').

Hi,

Can this be used let $heading = "Alter-Printer Font=902 Point-Size=14"
And
then make reference to $heading when I need to format a Heading? I ask
because I get the following error message:

Error on line 22:
   (SQR 4008) Unknown function or variable in expression: "alter
    let $heading = "Alter-Printer Font=902 Point-Size=14"

Errors were found in the program file.

SQR: Program Aborting.

Thanks
Vito
