Okay, I'm doing a standard COUNT, BY, ACROSS report. For example:

TABLE FILE MASTERFILE
COUNT ACCT
BY TRAN_CODE
ACROSS MONTH
END

The report lists the transaction codes down the side, the months across the top, and the actual counts are listed in columns and rows. Example:

JAN FEB MAR
TRAN CD
0001 5 3 4
0002 6 2 1
0003 2 9 1

I want to be able to click on one of the counts and get the detail of all the transactions. For example, I want to be able to click on the 5 and see all the 5 0001 transactions that occurred in January. I am having trouble getting this to work. How do I pass the appropriate parameters to the procedure that gives me the detail? Thanks!

This one isn't very intuitive, but you can see how it would work if you think about it a minute. When you do a drill down on a BY, you don't specify every row value - just the notation for the BY field. It's just referenced as Nvalue. So if you do a drill on an across, you don't specify every column value, just the ACROSS field - Avalue. See the example below using DIV and DEPT from EMPDATA
TABLE FILE EMPDATA
SUM
     SALARY
BY PIN
BY DIV
ACROSS DEPT
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM OFF
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     UNITS=IN,
     SQUEEZE=ON,
     ORIENTATION=PORTRAIT,
$
TYPE=REPORT,
     GRID=OFF,
     FONT='ARIAL',
     SIZE=9,
     COLOR='BLACK',
     BACKCOLOR='NONE',
     STYLE=NORMAL,
$
TYPE=DATA,
     ACROSSCOLUMN=N1,
     FOCEXEC=app/drillfex(DIV=N2 DEPT=A1),
$
TYPE=TITLE,
     STYLE=BOLD,
$
ENDSTYLE
END
