Re: [U2] Sending to the HOLD file
It's the same in UV. After using SETPTR spool the report as usual with the (P or LPTR.

RE: [U2] Sending to the HOLD file
Bob, On your system, the SP.ASSIGN command is actually a program supplied by your ERP application vendor which is basically doing this (executing SETPTR). For example: SP.ASSIGN HS LIST VOC FIRST 10 LPTR Hold file P#_5541 Mark -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jpb Sent: Thursday, November 30, 2006 7:17 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] Sending to the HOLD file It's the same in UV.

RE: [U2] Sending to the HOLD file
If you are describing the HOLD directory or the HOLD directory all of the suggestions are accurate. The one comment about loggin off to reset can be accomplished by executing SETPTR 0 with no other subcommands and it assumes the defaults. I am in a shop that is Pick flavor of Universe and everyone refers to the HOLD file when they are really describing the Pick system spool directory that is accessible through form name manipulation.

RE: [U2] Sending to the HOLD file
With everyone telling me the same thing, which I thought I was doing, I started looking a little more closely at how I was issuing the commands. I had spent a little time getting the output in just the right way and then saved the command to the VOC file. I made a paragraph out of it and that appears to have been my downfall. I moved the command to a DICT entry of the file and that's working great. Thanks for everyone's help (and confirmation I'm not as big a dummy as I thought).

RE: [U2] Sending to the HOLD file
Precede your report command with the SETPTR command (such as SETPTR 0,132,60,0,0,3). In this example, mode is set to 3 which is for _HOLD_ output only. HTH.

Can anyone offer up a QD TCL command for this? Thanks,Bob Woodward Senior Programmer/Analyst Harbor Wholesale Grocery --- I use something like this: SETPTR ,3,AS NEXT ADHOC,BRIEF,NFMT,NHEAD,NODEFAULT LIST ... Then you'll want to reset the SETPTR settings to the usual. Logging off and back on does this, of course, but it would be easier if you had a paragraph/proc that could be executed that just did a SETPTR to the usual settings.
