Error description
User has a print form into which some blanks lines are printed. In the Rational Business Developer 7.5.1.4 generated cobol program, some blank lines are not printed. Instead a carriage control character appears where there should be a blank line. The problem did not occur in printforms created by VisualAge Generator.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Users Affected: RBD 7.1.x and 7.5.x users printing an empty form (no variable or constant fields) to print a blank line(s) Problem Description: Blank lines were being suppressed since the + ASA character (no form feed) was getting printed on each blank line.
Problem conclusion
The empty print form was printed and a + ASA character was used, legitimately. On subsequent prints, the ASA character was not reset so a + was used from then on. The PSP generator was only generating the ASA reset for forms that contained a variable or constant for field. The reset should have been generated always.
