Report Writer Block Statements 

The Report Writer block statements further define a report by providing
execution control as well as report layout.  All of these statements must
occur within a report description.  Some of the statements must occur
within certain sections of the report.  The point each statement becomes
busy at, or is evaluated, varies from statement to statement.

If a Report Writer block statement executes when a report is not active,
an error occurs.  When there is an active report, the direct execution of
the statement acts as a comment.  These statements execute only when
certain other Report Writer statements execute, such as DETAIL LINE.

The following are Report Writer block statements:

 *  PAGE LENGTH

 *  LEFT MARGIN

 *  PAUSE EVERY

 *  SUPPRESS AT

 *  SUPPRESS FOR

 *  PRINT DETAIL IF

 *  TOTALS

 *  GRAND TOTALS

 *  BREAK IF

 *  BREAK WHEN
