[CLOSED] How to get the output to look like this?

October 05, 2010, 12:19 PM

I have a report that I need to be formatted like this. I'm trying to use OVER. But the 3rd column is not lining up correctly. And I would like to bold the headings.

User Information (blank column) User Profiles
---------------------------------------------
User ID: userid userprofile
Last name: lname userprofile2
First name: fname userprofile3

User Preference (blank column) (blank column)
----------------------------------------------
Timezone: timezone (blank column)

Account Information (blank column)(blank column)
-----------------------------------------------
Type: type (blank column)

you could put all your data (text labels and fields) in your HEADING or SUBHEADING lines.

Suzy,

Two things. First can you please include your code. Second, you can use the 'IN column' command to put your data where you want. If you want the Title and the Data to line up, you should cerate the titles using a Define and then use "AS ''" for the data.

Posting you example in the code tags will help seeing what you want.

User Information (blank column) User Profiles 
---------------------------------------------
User ID:          userid        userprofile
Last name:        lname         userprofile2
First name:       fname         userprofile3

User Preference  (blank column) (blank column)
----------------------------------------------
Timezone:        timezone       (blank column)

Account Information (blank column)(blank column)
-----------------------------------------------
Type:            type           (blank column)

I agree with RSquared, we need to see your code, and the layout of your data.

You may find it easier to do this with MacGyver, assuming all your data is in one row.

I've almost got this working the alignment is fine. My question is now how do I format the headings?

  
DEFINE FILE USERDETAIL
SPACE/A1 = ' ';
HEADING01/A20 = 'User Information';
HEADING02/A20 = 'User Profiles';
HEADING03/A20 = 'User Entitlements';
HEADING1/A20 = 'User Preference';
HEADING2/A21 = 'Account Configuration';
HEADING3/A20 = 'Account Information';
END


-* Print the Report
TABLE FILE USERDETAIL
PRINT
  HEADING01 AS ' ' SPACE AS ' ' HEADING02 AS ' ' HEADING03 AS ' ' OVER
  USER_ID AS 'User ID' USR_PROFILES AS ' ' ENTITLEMENTS AS ' ' OVER
  FNAME AS 'First Name' OVER
  LNAME AS 'Last Name' OVER
  MI AS 'MI' OVER
  ADDR1 AS 'Address Line 1' OVER
  ADDR11 AS 'Address Line 2' OVER
  CITY AS 'City' OVER
  STATE_PROVINCE AS 'State' OVER
  POSTAL_CODE AS 'Postal Code' OVER
  BUSINESS_EMAIL AS 'Business Email' OVER
  BUSINESS_PHONE AS 'Business Phone' OVER
  BUSINESS_FAX AS 'Business Fax' OVER
SPACE AS ' ' OVER
HEADING1 AS ' ' OVER
  LOCALE AS 'Locale:' OVER
  TIMEZONE AS 'TimeZone:' OVER
  HIERARCHY_FORMAT AS 'Hierachy Name Format' OVER
SPACE AS ' '  OVER
HEADING2 AS ' ' OVER
  BOARDING_HN AS 'Fusebox Hierarchy Node' OVER
  MPS_HN AS 'OCM/Acquiring Hierachy Node:' OVER
SPACE AS ' '  OVER
HEADING3 AS ' ' OVER
  ACCT_TYPE AS 'Account Type' OVER
  ACCT_CREATE_DT AS 'Account Creation Date' OVER
  USR_STATUS AS 'User Status' OVER

That doesn't seem to work well with this already defined. The headings aren't getting formatted at all.
