671.0. "<REVISION> not allowed in REPORT.TWOCOL document" by CASEE::CLARK (Ward Clark) Wed Jul 15 1987 17:47

    The <REVISION> description in the DOCUMENT User Manual states:

	The <REVISION> tag can be used in any document type for which
	you want to indicate to reviewers new or changed information.

    Unfortunate, attempting to use this tag in a REPORT.TWOCOL document
    yields the following:

	%DOC-I-IDENT, VAX DOCUMENT T1.0-008
	[ T a g   T r a n s l a t i o n ]...
	%TAG-I-TAG_IDENT, T1.0-002
	%TAG-I-DEFSLOADD, End of Loading of Tag Definitions
	%TAG-E-NOTDOCTYP, at tag <REVISION> on line 20 in file
	   ... full file-spec ...
====>>	   Tag <REVISION> is not allowed in the REPORT doctype
	%TAG-F-ABORTFORE, at end-of-file on line 32 in file
	   ... full file-spec ...
	   Processing terminates at this point.
	   There have been more than 0 error messages of severity level E

    What do I do now?  (Please don't tell me that I can't use
    REPORT.TWOCOL!)

    Sorry, but I do have to tell you that revision bars are not supported
    in any multi-column styles. The restrictions on REPORT.TWOCOL are
    the same as for ARTICLE; the final version of the documentation
    cross references these.
