QUIZ and subfiles

[o.kappert@qc.aibn.com]

It has been awhile but I'll give it a go....

It should not be going to a subfile.
Create a file eq for 
QUIZLIST=FILENAME;Rec=-132,,f,ascii;disc=1000000;save
Then run the quiz report, should work

    Subject: QUIZ and subfiles

          I am trying to produce a CSV file from a type 642 QUIZ 
SUBFILE.  The QUIZ
  script compiles ok but when it is run it does not create the expected 
output
  file.  If I run the script without the SET SUBFILE statement in it 
then the
  output that appears on the terminal is what I am trying to save to a 
file.

  If I run the compiled script then all that appears to happen is that 
the QUIZ >
  prompt appears.

  Has anyone any idea what I have tripped over?  The problem script is:

  SET NOSUBFILE

  ACCESS *QZART5A1

  DEFINE QZD-QUOTE CHARACTER SIZE 1 = '*'
  DEFINE QZD-DELIM CHARACTER SIZE 1 = ','
  DEFINE QZD-QDELIMQ CHARACTER SIZE 3 = '*,*'
