Re: Issue with overlay

The ENDPAGE DDS keyword goes to the next page after the format containing
ENDPAGE is printed. I do this for two sided forms:

DDS...
*
A R PG1OVL OVERLAY(G0907071 0.2 0.2)
*
A R DETAIL1
A ENDPAGE
A buncha fields...
*
A R PG2OVL OVERLAY(G0907072 0.2 0.2)
*
A R DETAIL2
A ENDPAGE
A buncha fields...


RPG code...
// Write first page overlay.
Write Pg1Ovl;
// Write first detail.
Write Detail1;
// Write second page overlay.
Write Pg2Ovl;
// Write second detail.
Write Detail2;

So, write your first overlay, write the stuff on it, write the second
overlay, write the stuff on it. The ENDPAGE advances the page.

We have a form that is given to workers in the field. There are several
different versions of the form depending on what type of work is to be
completed.
I have been asked to add a overlay to this form(we are trying to get rid
of the preprinted forms). Overall this is working ok, but I just
discovered that a couple versions of this form actually print on 2
pages. When I test using the multiple page form, I don't get my overlay
on either page.

I don't see anything on the parms that stands out to handle this. I
guess to keep things as close to the pre printed form, I would like the
overlay to print on both pages of this form. Any idea how to accomplish
this?
