Adding variables to existing reports

EPDM as shipped provides no way to do this, so I have written REXX execs for this.
    1. Change the query and/or QMF form as desired.
    2. Save them using the QMF commands
    3. At a command line, run TSO %RVARS report_name to find out what variables
       the report has.
    4. Make SQL commands to update the dialog table that controls report
       variables. Examine EPDM.DEFS(FIXVARS) for an example.
       - If there are variables for the report, you can just add one to
         DRLREPORT_VARS
       - If there are no variables, you must (as well as the above) update
         DRLREPORTS table so that NVARIABLES is non-zero.
    5. Execute the SQL commands.
