How can we romove multiple duplicate rows of data printing under each Print command in SQR Program?

Hi Friends.

Instead of Print command, by using String.So that we can get each and every row one time in either CSV/HTML/XML output format.

Example:
Print $Name(,)
Print $Name (,)
Print $Address2(,)
Print $State (,)
Print $Country(,) /* Use Strings here to remove multiple duplicate rows of data*/
STRING $Name $Address1 $Address2 $State $Country BY ',' INTO $ST1
STRING $N ,............................................................ BY ',' INTO $ST2
STRING $ST1 $ST2 BY ',' INTO $ST3
PRINT $ST3 (+1,1)

Hi Friends,

Yes,we can write multiple SQL Statements by using %Execute Function.(Pls refer in Peoplbooks if required).

Example: Scenario1:
Open one SQL Action.............
%EXECUTE (/)
UPDATE PS_JOB SET NAME='PEOPLESOFT' WHERE NAME1='HRMS';
/
INSERT INTO PS_JOB VALUES('NAME','EMPID','HOME',................);
/
DELETE PS_JOB WHERE ROWNUM=10;
Note: Here forwardslash is optional to commit the statment.

Scenario2:
%EXECUTE()
UPDATE PS_JOB SET NAME='PEOPLESOFT' WHERE NAME1='HRMS';
COMMIT;
INSERT INTO PS_JOB VALUES('NAME','EMPID','HOME',................);
COMMIT;
