The code below is creating multiple headers. What am i doing wrong?

import os, sys
PSSE_LOCATION = r"C:\Program Files (x86)\PTI\PSSE33\PSSBIN"
sys.path.append(PSSE_LOCATION)
os.environ['PATH'] = os.environ['PATH'] + ';' +  PSSE_LOCATION

import glob
import psspy
import redirect
##redirect.psse2py()
for CASE in glob.glob(os.path.join('C:\\Users\\tshipam\\Desktop\\SAPP temp\\PSSE Engine mode\\', '*.sav')):

psspy.psseinit(12000)
psspy.case(CASE)
psspy.throwPsseException = True

psspy.fdns([1,0,0,0,0,0,99,0])

conFile = open('report.txt', 'w')
conFile.write('Started writing to file by Mutenda Tshipala')
conFile.write('\n\n')

# Redirect generated reports to a file
psspy.report_output(islct=2, filarg="./" + 'report' + '.txt', options=[0])
##psspy.report_output(islct=2, filarg="./" + 'report' + FileNumber + '.txt', options=[0])    

# Run any functions that create a report
psspy.lout(0,1)

Try to add the line:

psspy.lines_per_page_one_device(1,9999)

before lout

Try having the command "psspy.psseinit(12000)" before the main for loop. Also put the file opening commands outside the loop. You will still get multiple headers!
The activity "LOUT" has a fixed-length text formatted output (approx. 60 lines x 150 cols) and information overflowing will generate a second 'page' with headers and all.

Text parsing using python might be a solution to eliminate unwanted headers.

The command "psspy.psseinit(12000)" is now before the main for loop. The code still generates multiple headers.
