Hi All,

I have a requirement to generate output in .txt file with report headers. The below code works fine.

FILEDEF REP DISK D:\IBI\APPS\baseapp\REP.TXT
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT CAR MODEL SALES DCOST
HEADING
"HEAD1"
"HEAD2"
ON TABLE HOLD AS REP FORMAT DOC
END
-RUN

the output file generate will be in baseapp folder. I have a issue in generating the same .txt file to report library. The scheduled job from RC showing Error . since the the file is in HOLD.

Can you please let me know you thoughts on how to generate .txt file with report headers or scheduling to the report library.

Thanks,
Saikumar

Saikumar,

There is a format for tab delimited that you can use. I believe it is TABD (you might want to look that up though). So changing your ON TABLE to

ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT TABD


Should be all you need to do for the Report Library.
