Banner Page using Quiz

Use the   INITIAL  HEADING   statement, with whatever text / statements 
you like, but including the user's ID/Name from one of the following :-

	 1.	Have the name entered as a run parameter.
	 2.	Use the System defined item LOGONID.
		This can be picked up either by the Quiz report itself, or by a 
		kick-off screen that picks up the value and includes it in the job
		file as a run-time parameter.
		The advantage of this latter method is that if you maintain, in a
		dictionary defined file, details of users  --  for maintenance using
		a QUICK screen  --  then you can include extra information about
		the user, such as office/location/..., as well and put it in the initial
		heading.   And you can quite easily define	standard initial
		heading code.)


If you really mean a banner that provides   LARGE   letters, such as
            x           x
              x       x
                x   x
                  x
                x   x
              x       x
            x           x
for 'x', etc, then almost certainly YES.   But the code will be rather
laborious, and will still depend on one of the two methods above.
(However, if you maintain a powerhouse dictionary defined file to
contain details of individual users then I suppose you could include
some text lines in the definition, and set their values from within a
screen that maintains details for each user.   That could be rather
an interesting exercise !      Then you could either provide the banner
lines as parameters, if you initiate the Quiz report from a kick-off screen,
or by linking several times to the file of banner lines for the appropriate
user.)
