Column wrapping not happening properly
I am trying to wrap a column. I have specified the following code:

TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=ABC, POSITION=15, WRAP=35, $

Now, even though the data for this column is more than the wrap length specified, it is not getting wrapped. Please help.

Is the column mentioned more than once in the request? If so, you have to either specify ABC(2) or ABC(*) to style it.

During debugging, I would add "COLOR=RED, " to the style sheet line to ensure that the expected column is actually addressed by the style sheet.

Have you tried:

TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=ABC, POSITION=15, WRAP=35, $
