Re: multiple reports and the process scheduler

Hi Sharon,

I've noticed the same thing.  This seems to be an SQR4 unannounced
"feature".  The advantage in revising the naming is that the file extension
is changed (which could cause problems with other programs looking at the
file extension).  The disadvantage - well, not knowing this would happen.

Subject:        multiple reports and the process scheduler

I have written a program that produces two output reports, using
declare-report in SQR version 4.  When I run the program using the process
scheduler, the following occurs:

 - one report gets written to the pshome/reports directory with the
   name pgmname.lis

 - the other report gets written to the pshome/sqr directory with the
   name pgmname_01.lis

The -F flag is set to pshome/reports.  I want both reports written to the
reports directory.  And, I don't understand why the one report is getting
named pgmname_01.lis, instead of pgmname.l01.  I've searched the archives
but did not find this problem.

Any help is appreciated,
Sharon
