RE: More than 99 indicators needed

I hate to mention this, but you can specify more than one indicator on a line. Use IN01 -> IN09 as major groups & IN10 - IN99 as minor groups. That would give you about 900 indicators.

I warn you though; it becomes a nightmare to maintain. I had to once & I'm glad that report was replaced.


A 01 10 FLD1 1 A 15
A 01 11 FLD2 1 A 20
A 02 10 FLD3 1 A 25
A 02 11 99 FLD4 1 A 30

Anyone have any ideas on how to accommodate a printer file that
requires attributes that would exceed using 99 indicators? For
example, if I need to specify the HIGHLIGHT attribute individually on

more than 100 fields on a print line, how could it be done,
considering there's the practical limit of
99 indicators?
