Logical name for report in QUIZ

Perhaps you could create the "SET REPORT DEV..." statement with the variable
name - in a flat file using Quiz.  Then "USE" that flat file in the next
Quiz.  

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the answer.

But I need a solution that I can use in Batch mode and that is QUIZ only.

We don't want to set-up VMS logical names for all user and all reports

We want the report name to be set-up in QUIZ and to be LOGINID + <name of
report>


Thanks to all!
