Thanks SD and Joe (Cognos),

I've already tried this way. It does give me what I want, or at least all
the data is there, but not the way I want it :( The recipients of this info
are non-PowerHouse aware and might not understand the PDL syntax :^>> so a

:BUILD PHDLIST;REC=-80,,F,ASCII;DISC=10000000
:FILE QSHOLIST=PHDLIST,OLD
:QSHOW
> set dictionary ........
> set report device printer
> set compress
> show all
> exit

and then editing the resulting PHDLIST (QSHOLIST) file gave the best results
-- so far.

Somebody suggested that I use Axiant. Would love to have tried but the
evaluation licence I had for version 3.0 ran out a couple of months ago and
I have deleted/destroyed the installation.

Now that I've got PERL on this machine I might try writing a script to
massage a QSHOLIST.

regards,
Robert
