Should be no problem, if you have a way to identify the "first record of a page", do you? |

Something like this should work:
INREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(nn,6,CH,EQ,C' PAGE ?),OVERLAY=(1:C?0?)), |

| Code: |
1 XXX XXX TITLE XXX XXXXXXXXXX PAGE 1
-
0 xxxx - input rec - xxxxxxxx
xxxx - input rec - xxxxxxxx
|
This is how i want my report to look like.I want to know how to simulate that '0' in the report.I am able to do the simulation of 1 and - through JCL.The first two lines are the headers and the third line where the '0' appears is the input record.the character '0' has to appear only while printing the first record of every new page.Any Suggestions please?? |

This works if the character '0' has to be inserted in the same row as PAGE.But it is done in the next row.Any suggestions?? |

appu,
If you're creating the report with DFSORT, you can insert the ANSI carraige control characters directly using DFSORT control statements. Are you creating the report with DFSORT? If so, show your DFSORT control statements.
If you're not creating the report with DFSORT, then do you want to put a '0' in the first byte of the third line of every page in the existing report?
What is the RECFM and LRECL of your input file? |

I'm a bit confused about what you're trying to do. It looks like you just need a specific number of blank lines between the header and the data. The ANSI carriage control characters with '-' and '0' you're using are one way to do it, but you can actually do the same thing with different carriage control characters using a space in position 1 of the first data record so you wouldn't have to overlay it with '0'.
How many blank lines do you want between the header and first data line? Show it like this:
Header
blank line
blank line
blank line
blank line
data |
