Hi,
Sorry,I guess i was not clear on my question.My reqirement is that i need to generate a report with the count of messages extracted from a MQ.The counts are fine but i am also getting the printer carriage control characters in the 1st position but i dont want them.The file is defined as :
OUTFILE DD DSN=OFRT.COMBINE.PARSE.OUT2.NEW,
DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),
UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(CYL,(3,2),RLSE),
DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=500,BLKSIZE=5000)
Is there anyway i can prevent the printer carriage control characters from being printed in my report or will i have to reprocess this file to remove them such as over writing them with spaces. |

| What is the definition of what you are generating the report with? COBOL? SELECT & FD? |

Treat the output like a file instead of a printer....
| Quote: |
| REPORT RPT2 SUMMARY LINESIZE 132 PRINTER OUTFILE |
Replace the word PRINTER with the word FILE.....
I don't know, but that might help..... |

hey that worked!!!!! i was able to get the messages but not the header,counts,tally etc now they have dissappeared when i gave
REPORT RPT2 SUMMARY LINESIZE 132 FILE OUTFILE
...the printer carriage control characters are removed.......
one more doubt i have two reports to be printed and i am printing in the same file so i have one more report stmt belowthe one shown.....
as
REPORT RPT SUMMARY LINESIZE 132 FILE OUTFILE
the first stmt is not showing any error but the above stmt is giving an error NOT A VALID FILE - OUTFILE |

| Might help to give the second a different name for OUTFILE and add a DD-statement for this new file. |
