status = %RW_REPORTS

status

Either 0 (no error occurred) or a handle to error data as defined in the reports.def file.

%RW_REPORTS starts an interactive ReportWriter session. It requires an RPTW license. If no license is available, it returns an error. %RW_REPORTS releases the license when the user closes the ReportWriter session.

Make sure you call %RW_INIT before calling %RW_REPORTS.

Call U_START with one header line and one footer line defined.

%RW_REPORTS does not perform any message parsing from either a SEND message or the RPTUSR environment variable.

Any EUTILS_METHOD that you have overloaded with E_METHOD will be overridden by the EUTILS_METHOD that ReportWriter overloads in %RW_REPORTS.
