But I don't want to give PAGSEG their own record!

Is that mandatory?

I want to build the page in the print file buffer. If I have multiple records with variable data, then I cant do that because they all share the print file buffer and data from recA will overlay data from recB.

Yes I could load the print buffer and then immediately print it, but in this particular application I may print pages in different sequences.

Any ideas?

I was hoping to be able to mix constants, variables, and pagseg in one record. Not possible???

Thanks

Page segments have to specified at a record format level.

A R STRSEGR PAGSEG(&STRSEG 10.0 1.0)

I mix OVERLAY and PAGSEG in the same printer file all the time. Just give
them their own record.

Can I mix these on one external printer file record definition?

I am seeing all sorts of compiler errors when creating the printer file.

Is there a certain sequence that keywords must appear?

And some keywords don't play well with others?



For example:

158 A P1_PHONE 15A O +28
11/18/15
159 A P1_NAME 30A O +0
11/18/15
160 A 8
11/18/15
161 A 'Date:

162 A __'
