214.0. "Multiple Reports" by WMOIS::D_WHITE () Thu May 18 1989 16:46

    I am looking for a way to get FOCUS to print multiple reports from
    a single TABLE request.  Where each record from my selection group
    would be a new report with a new report name.  
    
    I've tried using Dialogue Manager.  The first part would create
    a hold file that would contain my unique key to the file.  I would
    then use the DM command -READ to read in the hold file.  The only
    problem seems to be that it reads only the first record in the file.
    When I loop back in DM I get the first record again, this continues
    until I kill the process.  Anybody have any ideas.
    
    
    					Thanks

	We already had this problem with the -READ re-opening the file each time. We solved it by using a global variable &&COUNT and looping on the -READ until an other variable &LOOP is equal to &&COUNT, then increment &&COUNT and so on... Good luck - Jo�l
