Style Sheet WRAP / URL pass
I would like to wrap the comment column that is 250 long. Also I'd like to pass the ID_SIR in the URL path. The following is my code but none of it works.... Can anyone tell me where I went wrong....... FYI...version 5.2.3.......

 <br />DEFINE FILE GS01TB10<br />URLID/A75 = 'HTTP://sirbnch.nsf/allbyccir/'|ID_SIR ;<br />END<br />TABLE FILE GS01TB10<br />PRINT<br />ID_SIR AS 'Sir'<br />URLID  <br />TX_AFTER_COMMENT AS 'Comment'<br />BY &SORTIS<br />WHERE ID_BUDGET_AREA &BAIS.EVAL<br />WHERE NM_USER &EMPIS.EVAL<br />WHERE CD_TYPE &EVENTIS.EVAL<br />WHERE &DATEFROM.EVAL  &DATETO.EVAL<br />ON TABLE SET STYLE *<br />TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF, $<br />TYPE=HEADING, LINE=1, SIZE=12, STYLE=BOLD, JUSTIFY=CENTER, COLOR=RED, $<br />TYPE=HEADING, LINE=2, SIZE=08, JUSTIFY=LEFT,  $<br />TYPE=HEADING, LINE=3, SIZE=10, STYLE=BOLD, JUSTIFY=CENTER, COLOR=RED, $<br />TYPE=HEADING, LINE=4, SIZE=10, STYLE=BOLD, JUSTIFY=CENTER, COLOR=RED, $<br />TYPE=HEADING, LINE=5, SIZE=08, JUSTIFY=LEFT, $<br />TYPE=HEADING, LINE=6, SIZE=08, JUSTIFY=LEFT, $<br />TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=TX_AFTER_COMMENT, WRAP=1,   $<br />TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=ID_SIR, URL=N3, $<br />ENDSTYLE<br />ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT '&OUTFMT'<br />END<br />-RUN 
Any insight would be greatly appreciated......

GRID and WRAP are inextricably intertwined. Makes me CRAZY. i've been asking the Product Manager for ages 'why did you DO that?' and he just stares at me, clueless;
If you want wrap, you gotta have grid. argh!

as for your url, do you want it to be an actual url or just a text string? if you want an actual url, then you gotta define a string that is the full tag
URLID/a100='< a href="http://sirbnch.nsf/allbyccir/' | ID_SIR | '.htm">click here< /a>';
Is that what you wanted???
Instead of 'click here' you could put the variable ID_SIR value if you wanted.

Update: look a couple of posts up(#513), Pietro has come up with a very cool workaround for the grid/wrap situation.
