Wy not just have the ENTIRE page footing in the USE file? After all, what
your code snippet refers to seems to be a standard page footer anyways, so
just standardize the entire thing.
OR, I haven't tried this exact thing, but we have done similar things where
we used a text editor or perhaps Streamx to take a Powerhouse "shell"
program and modify the text and then send that modified program through Quiz
(or Qtp).
We used it mainly for building very flexible Choose / Select combinations,
but I don't see why the technique couldn't be adapted.
I believe the first option would be by far the better option.

Subject: can I do this - USE xfile - in the middle of a FOOTING stmt
On HP3000 mpe/ix PH Quiz vers 8 .
It would be very convenient if I could get this to work:
QUIZ
Access xxx
.
.
PAGE FOOTING &
TAB 10 &
USE STD1.USE
(In this case the "&" causes Quiz not to like the "USE".)
PAGE FOOTING &
TAB 10
USE STD1.USE
(In this case the absense of the "&" causes Quiz to see the USE file but it
doesn't list the fields in the Footing.)
Isn't there some way of inserting the USE file ? Like with a special
character or something?
Thank you in advance for your help.
