    I have a custom batch report that includes secondary "error" report.  When I run the program, the error report appears in Print Manager, even if it is empty (i.e. no errors).  When I select that report from Print Manager is shows "No Data in Report File - Check Report Parameters for Possible Error Message".

    Is there some way to suppress this report in Print Manager if it is empty?

    Thanks!  Kelly

      I figured it out.  I can wait to do my "OPEN OUTPUT ERRORS-FILE" call until the first time I try to write to the error report.  At the end of processing, I check to see if the file has been opened before I attempt to do the "CLOSE ERRORS-FILE".  Works like a charm.

      Please let me know if there are issues with this approach.  Thanks!
