I am trying to print two multiline text fields side by side on a report. I am
using the statements:
print &id (+1,40)
print &desc (0,50) wrap 30 5 ON=<13> STRIP=<10>
print &res (0,85) wrap 30 5 ON=<13> STRIP=<10>
The first multiline field prints fine, but the next multiline field prints on
the row where the first field ends. I want them to appear in columns, both
sarting on the same row. I experimented a bit with fixed positioning, but
was unable to get this to work.
Here is my goal:
ID Description Resolution

displayed.
This is what I am getting with the above mentioned statements:
ID Description Resolution

text to be

Is it possible for this to work using the wrap command? I have resolved a
problem like this before by using 'unstring' and printing each line
individually, but I think there must be a better way.
Thank you,
