Hi,

The parameter DIALOG can be used to control whether a dialog box appears before output to the printer. The user can set various spool parameters for the output in this window.

hi,

Use parameter DIALOG to determine whether to display a dialog box before printing, in which the user can set several spool parameters for print formatting.

Possible values:

' ' display no print parameter screen

'X' display print parameter screen

Default value: 'X'

that means after you press execute button you will get a dialogbox before printing where u have print preview, print and other options

remove X in the parameter dialog and then do your prog execution you will know the difference

regards

DIALOG = 'X' Indicator: Dialog for print options, that means during print preview you will be given a pop up which contain info like from which printer the print out should come, how many pages to be printer etc.

Hi Manju,

if DIALOG = 'X', then a dialog message will appear before the content goes to the printer.

thanks & regards
