I'm trying to generate a report using ORACLE Release 6.0
SQL.Report 1.1.9.4.2 on a SUN/UNIX system. I modified an
already created .RPT ,then generate a new .RPT and RPF for 
this report.
 It's my understanding that when you execute RPT,it produces an
 interim file.(RPF suffix)  You then process the interim file
 through the RPF formatter, to create the finished document.
 I do not get a finished document!  My output consists of the
 defined tables only.  (ex. # dt 1 3 10 25 30 31 35 ....)
 In reviewing other .RPF (interim) files I noticed data being extracted 
 from database which verify's the format of report. This is not working
 for me!

 To execute .RPT I enter:
  RPT filename, output name password  - generates my .RPF file

 To execute process interim file thru .RPF:
  RPF <inputfile> <output_dev> -usually use LP for printer.

I would appreciate any information that someone can give me in  
reference to this subject.
