I have an address that appears only on page 1 of my data stream. I have selected it and it shows up on page 1 of my form.
I would like the address to show up on pages 2 and 3 also. I have not been able to create a global variable to do this.

How do you create a gloabl variable from 4 lines of data? The data goes from line 4 to line 7, and from colums 1 to 25.

Thanks.

Hello,

Create a global variable and set it

&var1 := @(4,1,25) + @(5,1,25) + @(6,1,25) + @(7,1,25)

But you must remember that this variable will store the information "on one line", if you will. If you show this variable you will see all the information from the 4 lines.

You can create an array and store each line in one element or you could put a special character between each line and then re-parse it on the other pages. (I personally think the array method is much easier).
