Setting Output File Types

An SQR report named myreport.sqr creates a FRAME file (myreport.htm) and report output files. The OUTPUT-FILE-MODE entry in the Default-Setting section of the PSSQR.INI file controls the report output file extensions. When this entry is set to SHORT, the report output files use the form myreport.hzz, and when set to LONG, the files use the form myreport_zz.htm. The value of zz ranges from 00 to 99 and reflects the report number.

The FRAME file displays a list (links) of report pages in one frame and the report text in another frame. Each report output file contains a list of pages (links) at the end of the file. If myreport.sqr created multiple reports, then the FRAME file contains a link to each report output file. In addition, each report output file contains links to the other report output files that were created during the program run.
