    I am building a custom batch program and I want to add a secondary report (i.e for errors) to the Print Manager output for this report.

    I added another $REPORT section to my .rpt file, and it included the error report as part of the .prt file rather than as a separate file and separate Print Manager record.  Is there some trick to creating it as a separate file? 

    Thanks!

      Did you also add a file in workdef and assign this file to the new report?

        Yes, I did. When I did that, then I get "No XRef for RptSub(1) to iXFFXRef file" errors. I haven't been able to find squat about that error.

          Look in the
          Application Development Workbench Standards
          Here's one of my examples.
          ****************************************************
          $REPORT ZH210-R2
          ****************************************************
          $PRINTFILE EXTRARPT
          .
          .
          .
          $ENDRPT

          Work File Definition

          Product Line TEST File Record Yes
          System Code ZH Sort File No
          Program Code ZH210 File Media Printer
          File Name EXTRARPT Value/WsFld Id
          Prefix File Status

          Field Name Occurs Type Size 250

          EXTRARPT-REC Alpha 250

            Yep - that's exactly what my workdef looks like, except for the string length.

              UGH!  I'm a dork!  I deleted my "old" job and created a new one and it worked fine.  Of course.

              Thanks for all your ideas, in any case!
