Subphyla question

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

> Create one pass just to prompt for the parameters. Write them to a one

> I am writing a Quiz program that runs 4 passes of data.
> Each pass for data require the same user entered Date range.
> I created a one record subfile(a) to accept the PARM PROMPTED date value.
> On the first report, I use a USE to run the subfile(a), prompting for the
> date.
> The remaining reports access other files and append to a separate subfile,
> which at the end is sorted and reported by type of record.
> I don't believe I can link to my 'date' subfile, because the data file is
> driving the reporting.
> Once the date range is captured, is there a way to hold the dates,
> throughout all four passes?
