    1. Creating a different look for each data dictionary.

    2. Generating an application which automatically imports your own look.

    Delicious way to speed kitchen productivity
    .

    With the holiday season upon us and holiday parties, office potlucks, and family gatherings to look forward to...it's easy to find yourself in the kitchen over a hot stove creating a dish to pass.

    Here is a quick and easy (and unapologetically decadent) favorite family recipe, from the mrc family to yours. Happy Holidays!

    Find it here.


    Hotline Question of the Month
    .


    “I am creating a PDF report using the MRCRPTSND command. This report is built over several Summary files, so I've written a CL program to submit them all.

    The CL first submits the Summaries using the MRCBCH command, and then I use the MRCRPTSND command to generate the report. However, when the MRCRPTSND finishes, the report is missing data.

    After further examination of the job log, it shows that the batch program ends AFTER the report has been e-mailed.

    Below is my CL program, what am I doing wrong?”
