BASIC "HEADING" Statement - Resetting page headers & numbers after PRINTER CLOSE

  • 1.  BASIC "HEADING" Statement - Resetting page headers & numbers after PRINTER CLOSE

    Posted 06-09-2022 16:18
    Hi,

    What is the correct way to reset page headers and numbers when using the
    BASIC "HEADING" statement after issuing a PRINTER CLOSE statement?

    We have a program that generates multiple reports based on the same
    SELECT list.???? Each report must start at page number 1.

    The only time it works is by issuing the following statements:

    * PRINTER ON
    * HEADING ......
    * PAGE 1

    This, however, generates a blank first page on each report.

    How can we correct this?

    Hi,

    the PAGE statement resets page numbers and also prints a new Heading where set.
    I recall that the HEADING Page PL Worked fine, but the FOOTING Page PL started at 0 not 1
