Nodictionary Question

By looking at your code, you should only be getting two prompts (start and end).
The only time I have ever run into having to enter an extra prompt is when I did
a parm on a choose statment.  The extra enter terminates the choose statment.

So the question is, what else are you doing?

heres a little piece of the code:

ACC CHECK-DETAIL
DEF START NUM*8 = PAR PRO "ENTER START DATE: "
DEF END NUM*8 = PAR PRO "ENTER END DATE: "

SEL IF BANK-NO = 01 AND (CHECK-DATE GE START AND CHECK-DATE LE END) &
    AND (P-CHECK-NO <> 0)

DEF C-NO CHA*10  =  RJ(ASC(0000000000 + P-CHECK-NO,10))
DEF C-AMT CHA*10 = RJ(ASC(0000000000 + CHECK-AMOUNT,10))
DEF ACCT CHA*10 = "********"
DEF C-DATE CHA*6 = ASC(CHECK-DATE)[5:2] + ASC(CHECK-DATE)[7:2] + &
       ASC(CHECK-DATE)[3:2]
DEF VOID CHA*1 = "-" IF CHECK-STATUS =03 OR CHECK-STATUS=13  ELSE " "
DEF BL CHA*43 = " "
REP SUM C-NO C-AMT ACCT C-DATE VOID BL
SET SUB NAME BA1596 APP NODICT
SET REP LIM 100000
GO
