Quite a long time here... Is there a way we can do the BYDISPLAY setting at column level?
Say In the below code, Country should be grouped and sorted(Same values should not repeat)... and CAR should only be sorted(Same values should repeat)
TABLEF FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR.BODY.SEATS
BY CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY
BY CAR.COMP.CAR
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
END
BYDISPLAY on globally or ON TABLE would not work for this? Any surprising direct options?This message has been edited. Last edited by: Ramkumar - Webfous,

No BYDISPLAY is GLOBAL; Use NOPRINT
TABLEF FILE CAR PRINT CAR.COMP.CAR CAR.BODY.SEATS BY CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY BY CAR.COMP.CAR NOPRINT ON TABLE NOTOTAL END -EXIT
SET BYDISPLAY is global. You could do it with COMPUTE:
TABLEF FILE CAR
PRINT
COMPUTE COUNTRY_BY/A10 = IF COUNTRY EQ LAST COUNTRY THEN '' ELSE COUNTRY;
CAR
SEATS
BY COUNTRY NOPRINT
BY CAR NOPRINT
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
END

Both the Ideas.. That's nice.. I just wanted to check if there is a direct way like ON TABLE SET BYDISPLAY ON 1 or 2 somethig of that sort.
Thanks, Ram.

Yes BYDISPLAY is global. Couldn't have had the same possibilities as BYPANEL where one can choose? As usual, there is always a workaround.

just my two cents... Use Tom's idea as Francis' won't translate groupings to the database in versions before 8.1.04.

Eric, I don't know what you mean by "translate groupings to the database". COMPUTE statements occur after the data is retrieved so they are not translated to SQL.

That's right... Compute will happen after the data retrieval and aggregations(groupings). What's different here?

Francis, run the sql trace on your statement. I've found that even with computes, when the adapter comes across a command that it doesn't know how to translate, it will default ol to a webfocus managed join and not write group by commands into the sql. For this reason I try to avoid any syntax on an initial pass that I know doesn't translate. I've seen it happen whether I put the value on a compute or not.

I've never seen that occur with COMPUTE statements, I don't think it can happen.
TABLEF FILE RPT_RULES
SUM
COMPUTE RPT_ATTR_BY/A80 = IF RPT_ATTR EQ LAST RPT_ATTR THEN '' ELSE RPT_ATTR;
TYPE_IND
MIN.RULE_STR
BY RPT_ATTR NOPRINT
BY TYPE_IND NOPRINT
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
END
SELECT
T1.RPT_ATTR,
T1.TYPE_IND,
MAX(T1.RPT_ATTR),
MAX(T1.TYPE_IND),
MIN(T1.RULE_STR)
FROM
ENTRPT.CASH_EXP_RPT_RULES T1
GROUP BY
T1.RPT_ATTR,
T1.TYPE_IND
ORDER BY
T1.RPT_ATTR,
T1.TYPE_IND;

I had it happen to me when using the strong concatenation. Apparently the Oracle adapter doesn't support it. Even as a compute my group by's weren't translating down.
Maybe it was an issue with the concatenation then.
