Hi All,

I was working with some reports, and I have found that alot of times users try to run reports with empty data. And whenever they see the NO HTML output page, they tell me that the report is broken. Is there anyway I can change where the no data page points to?

I'm using the following code to handle these situations:


-*-DEFAULT &NORETMSG = 'Request Returned No Data'
-SET &NORETMSG = IF &INMSG EQ '' THEN 'Request Returned No Data' ELSE &INMSG;

-IF &LINES LT 1 THEN GOTO NORETURN;
-EXIT
-NORETURN
-HTMLFORM BEGIN









!IBI.AMP.NORETMSG;



-HTMLFORM END

You can change the default text by changing the &NORETMSG variable.

Thanks for the help with this. I'm sure I will get fewer complaints now.
