Re: How does SQR page-break when writing many detail lines?



I have used variables in my the header section to print a header based on variable information.
Since the header is not created until the whole page is written, this is a very plausible solution.

I have used both the evaluate statement and also just simple if statements.

Kent,

Have you looked at DECLARE-PROCEDURE AFTER-PAGE= and BEFORE-PAGE= ?
I have used these to do something similar.
