  • 1.  One Header Page

    Posted Mon July 25, 2022 08:05 AM
    I need a header on page 1 only with no other pages. The data is to be a continuous flow after the initial page. The type=racf. I'm aware of nopage if I don't want a header.

    Hi Jack,

    the answer to your question is documented as follows in the CARLa Command Reference manual, in the section about FILEOPTION and OPTION keywords:

    PAGELEN=number
    PAGELENGTH=number
    PL=number
    Number of lines on each page to be used for printing. The default is 0 for LIST commands in the domain of a NEWLIST, and 56 for SORTLIST commands, and for the files SYSPRINT and CKREPORT. The minimum is 6, the maximum is 32767.
    PL=0 is equivalent to specifying NOPAGE, except that PL=0 prints page headers on the first page in the output file. You should use NOPAGE with (SORT)LIST to suppress page headers, e.g. for command generation.

    So adding statement FILEOPTION (or OPTION) PAGELENGTH=0 (or PAGELEN=0 or PL=0) to your CARLa program should only generate a single top header to your report.

    Alternatively, you can also add PL=0 to the NEWLIST statement in your CARLa program.

    Thank you Tom. Works perfectly. I'm rather new to zsecure and a bit clunky yet as I reference the manual.
