Flat file creation problem -Reply



On page 11 of the SQR3 book...  :)      (just kidding)

There is a variable #current-column which gives the current column number.
You could end every line with something like:
let #end_len = 150 - #current-Column + 1
print ' ' (0,#end_len)

Although I would tend to prefer to use a variable $Print_Line and concatonate 
the
output into the one variable, rpad it to the correct length and print it.

Let $Print_Line = $Emplid
Let $Print_Line = $Print_Line || '    '
Let $Print_Line = $Print_Line || $Empl_Shoe_Size
Let $Print_Line = Rpad($Print_Line,150,' ')
