Hello All,
I have a requirement where i need to modify an ezytrieve program.
One fo the requirement being that the header should be displayed only on the first page of the report, as this report needs to be exported to an excel.

The report will have only header and detail record.

Can anyone suggest me how this can be done?

Thanks in advance,
Chikdu

chikdu,

Write the report as an output file and use START parm to write the header only once

Kolusu,

Thanks for the quick reply.But there is a problem in doing so, as this report is sequenced on some fields.
So i think we will have to print it as a report.

Is there any other way to do so in the report, so header is seen only on the first page.

chikdu,

Why not get the headers in the excel and let your report write only the data. In your report use the parm NOHEADING and it will supress the heading. The report will have just the data.

Kolusu,
I thought of putting the header in a file and data in another file and merging the header file and the data file in JCl. I think it should help.

Thanks!!!

Why not just print the report as if the page never ends, therefore only one page heading?
