Not quite sure what you are looking for. Maybe you could give us an example? You can name a column title anything you want with the AS phrase.

Are you looking for COLSPAN option. This working only in HTML & EXL2k.
Provide a example using car file to help you better. Also mention the output format.

Raghu, to keep the spaces in the post put the text into the code tags.

col1 |combined coluns             | col7
     |col2  col3 col4 col5 col6   | 

As Ram says, you could use COLSPAN.

TABLE FILE CAR
HEADING
" "
" <+0>Sales Details<+0> "
 PRINT CAR         AS 'Car'
       MODEL       AS 'Model'
       BODYTYPE    AS 'Body Type'
       SEATS       AS 'No of Seats'
       DEALER_COST AS 'Dealer $'
       RETAIL_COST AS 'Retail $'
       SALES       AS 'Sales'
       MPG         AS 'MPG'

ON TABLE SET STYLE *
 TYPE=REPORT, HEADALIGN=BODY, $
 TYPE=HEADING, LINE=2, ITEM=1, COLSPAN=4, $
 TYPE=HEADING, LINE=2, ITEM=2, COLSPAN=3, $
 TYPE=HEADING, LINE=2, ITEM=3, COLSPAN=1, $
 TYPE=HEADING, LINE=1, COLSPAN=8, $
ENDSTYLE

END

This will depend on the output format. PDF does not like COLSPAN.

You could also use the WIDTH option.

TABLE FILE CAR
HEADING
" "
" <+0>|<+0>Sales Details<+0>|<+0> "
 PRINT CAR         AS 'Car'
       MODEL       AS 'Model'
       BODYTYPE    AS 'Body Type'
       SEATS       AS 'No of Seats'
       DEALER_COST AS 'Dealer $'
       RETAIL_COST AS 'Retail $'
       SALES       AS 'Sales'
       MPG         AS 'MPG'

ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N1, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N2, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N3, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N4, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N5, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N6, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N7, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=REPORT, COLUMN=N8, WRAP=1, $
 TYPE=HEADING, LINE=2, ITEM=1, WIDTH=4.44, $
 TYPE=HEADING, LINE=2, ITEM=3, WIDTH=3.15,JUSTIFY=CENTER, $
ENDSTYLE

END

Hi Waz,
We tried with the above code but it is not working.
The requirement is same as you mentioned in the above mail.
Please find below my code.
TABLE FILE RPTTOP

PRINT SUPLLIER_CODE AS 'Supplier Code'
SUPPLIER_NAME AS 'Supplier Name'

LCH_COQ1 AS 'Launch'
PRD_COQ1 AS 'Quality'
WAR_COQ1 AS 'Warranty'
REC_AMOUNT1 NOPRINT
COMPUTE CRA_P/D10.1% = (COLL_AMT1/REC_AMOUNT1)*100; AS '% CRA Collected'
COMPUTE COQ_1/D10.1 = PRD_COQ1+DEL_COQ1+WAR_COQ1+LCH_COQ1; NOPRINT

Please advice me how can i reach the requirement

Thanks,
Raghu

MY IDEA:

  

TABLE FILE TEST1
PRINT 
COLUMN1
COLUMN2
COLUMN3
COLUMN4
COMPUTE combinedColumn1/A50 = COLUMN1||COLUMN2||COLUMN3
ON TABLE HOLD FORMAT TEST2


TABLE FILE TEST2
PRINT 
    *
HEADING
"<COLUMN1<combinedColumn1<COLUMN2 "
FOOTING
""
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,
$
.......
.......
.......

i'm not sure this can run well,just a idea for you !

Thanks,
James Yang

Hi Yang,
We are not concatinating the data.
Just we are combinig the column header.

Thanks,
Raghu

You will have to do this as a heading or subheading rather than a title and include the whole line.
HEADING
"This is your company heading"
"The next line is your column titles"
"<+0>Col 1<+0> Col2 Col3 Col4 <+0> Col 5"

In your stylesheet
TYPE=HEADING,
LINE=3
ITEM=2,
COLSPAN=3,
JUSTIFY=CENTER,
$
If you have a problem identifying the item numbers, try making them different colors"

Raghu, what was wrong with the output ?

I changed your code to work on the CAR file, and it looks OK.

TABLE FILE CAR
HEADING
" "
" <+0>Total Cost of Quality (USD)<+0> "
PRINT COUNTRY AS 'Supplier Code'
CAR AS 'Supplier Name'
MODEL AS 'Total Uncollected CRA(USD)'
RETAIL_COST AS 'Delivery'
DEALER_COST AS 'Launch'
SALES AS 'Quality'
WIDTH AS 'Warranty'
LENGTH NOPRINT
COMPUTE CRA_P/D10.1% = (HEIGHT/LENGTH)*100; AS '% CRA Collected'
COMPUTE COQ_1/D10.1 = SALES +RETAIL_COST +WIDTH+DEALER_COST ; NOPRINT
COMPUTE COQ_P/D10.1% = (HEIGHT/COQ_1)*100; AS '% COQ Collected'
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD

Is the problem the lines in the heading ?

i think Waz 's way is correct!
