Chris, OA-OG, and OV are for program described print only. Use a numeric indicator. So you may code your keyword...OflInd( *IN60 ). Also, this indicator comes on when there's overflow, but you must programatically turn it off. Your code will look something like this.

If *IN60 = *On
Write Hdg
Eval IN60 = *Off
EndIf

I usually check overflow by getting the information from a printer informational DS. As it contains the current line, and overflow line, you can make the necessary calculations in your program to see if the format you're planning to write still fits on the page ... and if not, you can write a new header.

Here we typically place an error indicator on the write statements. when overflow occurs, the error is trapped, and you can perform your overflow logic.
