Nancy,
Suggest that you change the print command from ':print STD1.USE >> tempfile'
to ':print STD1.USE;page=0 >> tempfile'.
If your STD1.USE file contains more that 23 lines and you are doing this in
a session. If you don't, it will keep prompting you to press [return] after
'copying' every 23 lines.

Nancy,
You can try the following:
:echo PAGE FOOTING TAB 10 & > tempfile
:print STD1.USE >> tempfile
USE tempfile
:purge tempfile,temp

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.
