We're looking at a
quick and dirty replacement for our Office documents we use to send information
to our customers (disconnect letters, etc.). Here is what we are planning:
Print the office document, then use CPYSPLF to covert from stream to a database
member. We have a RPG program which will read the database member in, use
a replace function to fill in keywords such as %date%, then output to a printer
file. We then would use a CL to override the RPG to a specific database
member for whatever letter we want to produce.
The one problem we
seem to be running into is that certain letters have attributes such a bold or
underline, which we are legally required to format this way. Is there a
way I can 'softcode' bold or underline starts and ends directly into my database
member, or create a replace function to change '%BOLD%' to the boldface
code?
Thanks for your
help!
