Seamus,
I have run into this before, you can use QTP and create your header with one
output and append the details with another. You might also try Robelle's
STEXPORT.

Subject: Quiz Page width problem
Hi,
I'm having problem exporting a long field from Quiz on to my disc.
I'm on a HP3000 and I want to create a file in CSV format.
Trouble is that the length of my field is about 500 characters.
This is it
def header char * 508 = &,
Pack ("PATNUM" + ";" + &,
"PATRAI" + ";" + &,
"PATNOM" + ";" + &, etc..
Then :
def packet char * 508 = &,
Pack (asc(PATNUM) + ";" + &,
PATRAI + ";" + &,
PATNOM + ";" + &, etc
Then :
:purge lftest
:build lftest ;rec=-512,,f,ascii
set rep dev disc name lftest
That part seems OK.
Then I do
init head header
set page len 0
set rep spa 0
rep packet
go
I get this message from QUIZ
*E* Can't report an element exceeding PAGE WIDTH specification.
Limit seems to be 256.
Any way round this ?
TIA
Seamus
