Dan, regardless of your method, concerning @wbrk#, Mark's first suspicion is
probably right - if you don't have a form that you are referencing when you
run your request that has a sub-total break# defined on it, the processing
@wbrk# will not be triggered. Therefore, if you want a trigger @wbrk#,
define a form (any type, but #5), and define your desired fields to break on
(on the Sort Info screen). If you want to run your request from "Request
Output," then name your format name the same as the processing that you have
defined.
If you are not interested in any printed output from the form, then redirect
to a file, or /dev/null, depending on your O/S.
