Here's an example with the CAR file - I *think* you can't avoid doing it in two steps.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COUNTRY NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY
BY BODYTYPE
ON TABLE HOLD AS H001
END

DEFINE FILE H001
BODYCOUNT/I4 = IF COUNTRY EQ LAST COUNTRY THEN BODYCOUNT + 1 ELSE 1;
END

TABLE FILE H001
SUM
BODYTYPE
ACROSS BODYCOUNT NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY
END

Hey Francis/Arif,

One pass is doable.

The problem with the CAR table is it's a hierarchical FOCUS table so each COUNTRY only exists physically once in the top segment so the "LAST" function only sees it once and the counter doesn't work. Adding "...(IF BODYTYPE EQ LAST BODYTYPE THEN BODYCOUNT ELSE BODYCOUNT + 1) ELSE 1;" solves that.

DEFINE FILE CAR
BODYCOUNT/I4 = IF COUNTRY EQ LAST COUNTRY THEN (IF BODYTYPE EQ LAST BODYTYPE THEN BODYCOUNT ELSE BODYCOUNT + 1) ELSE 1;
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM BODYTYPE AS ''
ACROSS BODYCOUNT NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY AS ''
ON TABLE SET PAGE NOPAGE
END

This also:

TABLE FILE CAR
LIST BODYTYPE
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE HOLD
END
TABLE FILE HOLD
SUM BODYTYPE
BY COUNTRY
ACROSS LIST NOPRINT
END
