313.0. "PRESENTABLE OUTPUTS!!" by IRNBRU::WILSON () Fri Feb 09 1990 07:49

    Hi,
    
    When executing a .fex file which has a command to save the data
    in a print file after processing, I am not very pleased with the layout
    of the data in the aforementioned print file. All the data is there,
    but the format is almost non-existent.
    
    If I simply manually re-type all the commands "as in the .fex file", 
    whilst in the tabletalk environment, and then have the data extractions 
    stored to a VMS printable format, the VMS printable format output has a
    "mirror image" layout of what I displayed on the screen, which is
    nothing like the layout I get when I execute the .fex file.
    
    What I would like to do; is to have the print file format that is
    associated with tabletalk data storage facilities included in the 
    .fex file. Ie to give me the same kind of layout that I can have
    under the tabletalk environment.
    
    If anyone knows the answer to this I would be very grateful.
    
    John.

    Don't only mention "ON TABLE HOLD" 
    but be more precise , example : " ON TABLE HOLD FORMAT DOC "
    
    Try this one.
