RE: how to print on every line of the page, from 1 to 66?

Scott's right. I'd forgotten that part. If you don't define an overflow indicator, RPG will try to do overflow processing for you.

It's blowing up because when you write line 66, RPG wants to turn the overflow indicator on, and you haven't coded an overflow indicator.

Add an overflow indicator to your F-spec. Then, just ignore it in the rest of the code. The indicator will be turned on, but your program can just ignore it and keep printing.

Overflow is set to 66. How can I write printer code that prints on
each line of the page?

( I am printing CSV formatted data, then emailing the spooled file. If
the page does not have all 66 lines filled, I get gaps in the
resulting spreadsheet. )
