Re: [sqr-users] blank line being inserted unexpectedly whileissuingprint commands

It appears that you are still printing a line in your loop, but the
variable is coming out a space so you don't see the results.  As a
method of debugging try something like 

Let $var = $var || ' row: ' || some data from the row

that might tell you which row is still printing.

also, instead of blanking out the variable (Let $var = ' ') try putting
something in there to see if that is, in fact, what is happening.

Hello All -
You've been super helpful to me in the past, and I've got another
problem that has me stumped.

I am writing a report that selects a row of data from a table and
based on the data in that row, it may decide to omit the line from the
report.

So let's say I have table:
row 1 - a1
row 2 - a2
row 3 - a3
row 4 - b1
row 5 - b2
row 6 - b3
row 7 - c1
row 8 - c2
row 9 - c3

And I know that, based on the content of row 5 (b2) that I want to
omit rows 4-6 (the b's).  I've got the logic working so that all three
rows are omiitted, but for some reason the output is:

a1
a2
a3

c1
c2
c3

and not:
a1
a2
a3
c1
c2
c3

I'm just using a basic "print $var (+1,1)" command and have been
through the code about a million times to see if I might have an extra
"print"  statement in my exclusion processing, but I can't find
anything.

Has anyone encountered anything like this?  Any suggestions of things
to check that could cause this?

Thanks!
Marc
