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.
