I am trying to create a compound procedure containing one report procedure and two graph procedures. Each procedure runs fine when run one at a time. But, when I try to add the either graph procedure to the compound procedure I get the following error message:

The "HOLD" file name is missing from the graph request. Please, correct the problem before running layout.

The restrictions for graphs in a compound document are clearly spelled out in the documentation. Please make sure that your HOLD statement looks like this:
ON GRAPH HOLD AS HOLD FORMAT SVG

I am not getting the hold file error anymore however, even though I have a report procedure and 2 graph procedures within this compound procedure, I am not getting any results for the report procedure or second graph procedure when I execute this compound procedure. All 3 procedures are in pdf format. I would appreciate any guidance offered.

Did you code the first output PDF OPEN, the second as PDF, and the third as PDF CLOSE ?

BKR, are you using the Document Composer? If yes, add the objects one at a time and test. I suspect that the problem is in one of your graphs. If the Document Composer doesn't like them, you won't get output. So if the compound report works with only the report, then you can be sure that it is one of the graphs. I was helping one of my users with the same problem last week and the problem turned out to be the PIXELS designation for the size. Once I changed it to INCHES, I was able to see the graph.

Give this a try and let us know how it goes. While you can use the older syntax that RSquared recommended, I'd like to see you progress with the new tool if that is what you are using.

I resolved this problem with IBI Support. There was a line of code APP HOLD BASEAPP which I commented out and the compound procedure now runs fine.
