Rick,

Try this:

 
DEFINE FILE SQLOUT 
  YADDA/A30= 'Whatever;
END
TABLE FILE SQLOUT
PRINT/SUM
   YADDA
END
-RUN

DEFINE FILE SQLOUT CLEAR
END
-EXIT

How about the "@0000024" in this error: "Completed with errors/warnings Task error: MASTER or PASS has changed since last DEFINE for filename @0000024 No report to distribute" ?
