RE: QMQRYFORM and variables

   Don,

   I'm not sure I'm clear on what you are telling me.  I know that I can (and
   I do) override the printer file so that the report goes to the printer I
   want with the number of copies I need, and some unique user data. 

   When I pass a variable to the qmqry, it uses it to compare in a where, or
   to point to a library in a from statement.  I can't use that data in the
   header in some fashion?  I already pass the name of the library to the
   query so that query looks like;

   SELECT                                             
     ALL       A.STATEID, A.SSN, A.DSPCDE             
     FROM      AWXTEST/PCCOMPARE as A Exception JOIN  
               &LIBNAME/MEXMASP as B                  
               ON A.SSN = B.AMSSN                     
     WHERE     A.STATEID = &GEN_ID

   I can't use the &LIBNAME variable in the header, footer,  or some other
   part of the report in the form, to indicate what library the query was run
   against?

   Thanks for your response!

   Jim

     You could preceed the qry with OVRPRTF PRTTXT(... library).  Otherwise
     all
     external data to QMQRYFORM comes from field data in the record set. 
     Since
     the record set is empty, no way for QMQRYFORM to use it.

     Subject: QMQRYFORM and variables

     I have looked for a couple of hours, and can't see that it is
     possible.  Can one put variables in the headers for a qmqry?  I have a
     query I want to run multiple times, and over the same files in different
     libraries.  If the query comes back blank, I would like to know the
     library
     it was pointed to, and so want to put the library name in the heading of
     the query.  The footing would be ok too, just on the page so there is
     some
     link to the library name that I passed into the query.

     Oh great and knowledgeable guru's - have you any good news for me?

     And - Happy Holidays to you all!!
