Hi All

I recall having a problem with HP3000 that related to the number of bytes in
a record (row in a file).
If this was not and even number (say 169) the results were undetermined.
Try what happens if you shift everything one position to the left and make
the page width 168.
That would give you some clues

Subject: Possible 'undocumented' feature in QUIZ


Greetings to the list.....

I came across something interesting and am curious if others have had the
same experience.

In QUIZ (PH8.29D) on my trusty HP 3000 937/LX running MPE/iX 6.0 pp0....
  (Oh Yeah, I'm Running For Power Patches Right Now....!)

I SET REP DEV DISK, and SET PAGE WIDTH 169.

When I try to REPORT .....TAB 161 SYSDATE PIC '^^^^^^^^' &
				TAB 169 '1'

My record[161:9] = '2        '

   => YET <=

When I SET PAGE WIDTH 170
My record[161:9] = '200101041'

I welcome any information on this....

Thanks In Advance!
