Method SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY in background

Hi,

does anyone know of a way to suppress page breaks when using method SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY for spool creation in background? (i.e. column headings to appear only once in spool file)

thanks,

Annie.

That should depend on size of the pageyou can set a page format in the print parameters

Hi Max

I've been palying around with the contents of the IS_PRINT parameter but nothing I do seems to change the format of the output - previously this parameter was not populated at all, so all defaults were used. Do you know if there is any documentation anywhere about how to populate this parameter?

thx, Annie.

IS_PRINT-PRINT_CTRL-PRI_PARAMS is based on structure PRI_PARAMS, here there are the fields LINCT, LINSZ in order to set the size of the page, or PAART for page format

yep, LINCT was the one of the parameters I was playing with but changing it made no difference at all to the output - I tried just setting the LINE-COUNT on the REPORT statement and that worked fine.

thanks again Max.
