Item Listing in Quiz

[Derek Fyfield at gmail]

John,

 

The output looks like that of  "Architect", a Powerhouse tool I last saw on
HP 3000 in 1990.  Does anyone remember what happened to the product?

 

Regards,

Subject: Item Listing in Quiz

 

I just had a meeting with my manager who had an interesting request.  She
had someone working for her a while back that had a way, in QUIZ, of listing
the field name with the contents of that field immediately after the item
name on the same line; like a verical listing.  She is looking to avoid
records with lots of fields wrapping aroung and missing the field names that
go with the data.  This guy told her that this was a function within
PowerHouse.  It turned out looking something like this:

 

Branch_ID    01

Location        Chicago

Type              Sales

Branch_ID    02

Location        St. Louis

Type              Sales Support

 

I played around with it a bit, but could not find anything that would even
come close accomplishing this.  I could write a .COM file that might do the
trick by capturing the fields from a QSHOW listing, but she says that it was
supposedly all within PowerHouse.  We are running 7.10.G1 on OpenVMS 8.3.

 

Can anyone out there offer me some help?

 

Thanks,

pencarver
