bizaar problem with 4gl reports
Posted in 1998
4GL 6.05.UC1 SQL 6.05.UC1 ONLINE 7.21.UD1 I have a program which creates 6 or 7 reports open depending on how it is being run. Some of the reports have ORDER BY statements and some do not. When 7 reports are being created the last report does not produce any output. when six are being produced it does. If I comment out the ORDER BY from the report then output is produced. The report is being closed Ok in both cases. I have dumped out all variables at the REPORT TO statement for the program running in its two modes and there are no significant differences in the contents of the program variables. I have displayed the paramaters passed to the report both before the report is called and from inside the report an they hold sensible data. The ORDER BY is on two of the passed paramaters a CHAR(1), and a CHAR(12). The other reports produced appear to work Ok. By commenting out the order by I can see the contents of all data passed to the report, its fine. I can't find any reference to this in the release notes. -- Tony .
