I have data as below

Heading Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5
Row1 100 100 100 100 100
Row2 200 200 200 200 200
Row3 300 300 300 300 300
Row4 400 400 400 400 400
Row5 500 500 500 500 500
Row6 600 600 600 600 600
Row7 700 700 700 700 700
Row8 800 800 800 800 800
Row9 900 900 900 900 900
Row10 1000 1000 1000 1000 1000

I may have more than 10 rows. not sure on the count of rows.

I'm looking for to format it as below on a PDF.

Heading Row1 Row2 Row3 Row4 Row5 Row6 Row7
Col1 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col2 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col3 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col4 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col5 100 200 300 400 500 600 700


Heading Row8 Row9 Row10 Totals
Col1 800 900 1000 5500
Col2 800 900 1000 5500
Col3 800 900 1000 5500
Col4 800 900 1000 5500
Col5 800 900 1000 5500


I'm expecting row headings and columns heading as above and totals at the end of the last bucket. Each bucket can have 8 columns(1 row headings columns and 7 columns after the transpose of columns into rows). The number of buckets will dependent on number of rows/7 . I have using OVER command and adjusted the space and I'm getting the format as below.

Heading Row1 Row2 Row3 Row4 Row5 Row6 Row7
Col1 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col2 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col3 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col4 100 200 300 400 500 600 700
Col5 100 200 300 400 500 600 700


Row8 Row9 Row10 Totals
800 900 1000 5500
800 900 1000 5500
800 900 1000 5500
800 900 1000 5500
800 900 1000 5500

I have tried different ways but I'm not getting the row headings from bucket2. Can someone, please help me.

Hi Jarves,

When posting sample result as you did, please use the code tag.
Last one on the ribbon
</>

It will help to have your sample aligned as you wish.

Also having your code posted may help to figure the solution
Or have a replication of the problem with a legacy file may help us

Finally, have you consider to put SET BYPANEL=ON at top of your fex
or
TABLE FILE ...
SUM ...
BY ...
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET BYPANEL ON
END

It will result of having each BY fields repeated on each pages

But it may not be the solution depending on your code...

Hi Martin,

Please see below.

TABLE FILE FILE_NAME
SUM
Col1 OVER
Col2 OVER
Col3 OVER
Col4 OVER
Col5
ACCROSS COL1 NOPRINT
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
END

Thanks,
Jarvas

As far as I can understand SET BYPANEL=ON won't work for you because that SET apply on BY fields and the OVER ones are not BY fields
A not that simple option could be the below. But it need to create a HOLD file for each Col (the OVER fields)

Another option may be to use the OPEN/CLOSE feature for PDF file (compound PDF) with a loop where each loop will only include its own Row list.
Loop 1 Row 1-7 PCHOLD FORMAT PDF OPEN, Loop 2 Row 8-14 PCHOLD FORMAT PDF, ... , Loop X Row xx-yy PCHOLD FORMAT PDF CLOSE
But I have not explored that option
And possibly many more options may suits the need such as MacGyver technic
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM DEALER_COST/D8 AS 'MEAS'
BY COUNTRY
BY TOTAL COMPUTE DUMROW /I2   = 1;
BY TOTAL COMPUTE DUMTXT /A20V = 'Dealer Cost';
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS FILROW1
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM RETAIL_COST/D8 AS 'MEAS'
BY COUNTRY
BY TOTAL COMPUTE DUMROW /I2   = 2;
BY TOTAL COMPUTE DUMTXT /A20V = 'Retail Cost';
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS FILROW2
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SEATS/D8 AS 'MEAS'
BY COUNTRY
BY TOTAL COMPUTE DUMROW /I2   = 3;
BY TOTAL COMPUTE DUMTXT /A20V = 'Seats';
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS FILROW3
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE FILROW1
SUM MEAS
BY COUNTRY
BY DUMROW
BY DUMTXT
BY TOTAL COMPUTE COLID /I2 = 1;
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS DETDATA
MORE
FILE FILROW2
MORE
FILE FILROW3
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE DETDATA
SUM MEAS
BY COUNTRY
BY DUMROW
BY DUMTXT
BY TOTAL COMPUTE COLID /I2  = 99;
BY TOTAL COMPUTE CAR   /A16 = 'Total';
ON TABLE HOLD AS TOTDATA
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE DETDATA
SUM MEAS
BY COUNTRY
BY DUMROW
BY DUMTXT
BY COLID
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS RPTDATA
MORE
FILE TOTDATA
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE RPTDATA
SUM MEAS     AS ''
BY COUNTRY
BY DUMROW    NOPRINT
BY DUMTXT    AS ''
ACROSS COLID NOPRINT
ACROSS CAR   AS ''
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET BYPANEL ON
END
-RUN

I see this thread is closed. Nonetheless, I love a challenge so here is a FOCUS-type solution:
  
-SET &ECHO=ALL;
-* &N - Number of columns per bucket
-DEFAULT &N=7
-* Data
FILEDEF JARVES DISK JARVES.TXT
-RUN
-WRITE JARVES Row1     100  100  100  100  100
-WRITE JARVES Row2     200  200  200  200  200
-WRITE JARVES Row3     300  300  300  300  300
-WRITE JARVES Row4     400  400  400  400  400
-WRITE JARVES Row5     500  500  500  500  500
-WRITE JARVES Row6     600  600  600  600  600
-WRITE JARVES Row7     700  700  700  700  700
-WRITE JARVES Row8     800  800  800  800  800
-WRITE JARVES Row9     900  900  900  900  900
-WRITE JARVES Row10   1000 1000 1000 1000 1000
-RUN
-* Master file for the data
EX -LINES 10 EDAPUT MASTER,JARVES,C,MEM
FILENAME=JARVES, SUFFIX=FIX
 SEGNAME=JARVES, SEGTYPE=S0, $
  FIELDNAME=HEAD, USAGE=A7, ACTUAL=A7, $
  FIELDNAME=COL1, USAGE=I5, ACTUAL=A5, $
  FIELDNAME=COL2, USAGE=I5, ACTUAL=A5, $
  FIELDNAME=COL3, USAGE=I5, ACTUAL=A5, $
  FIELDNAME=COL4, USAGE=I5, ACTUAL=A5, $
  FIELDNAME=COL5, USAGE=I5, ACTUAL=A5, $
-RUN
-* Read the data. Change all formats to have the same length (here 7, because of the HEADING)
-* LL: Number each record and reset the numbering after &N records
-* PP: Number the buckets 
TABLE FILE JARVES
PRINT 
COMPUTE LL/I3=IF LAST LL EQ &N*10 THEN 10 ELSE LAST LL + 10;
COMPUTE PP/I3=IF LL EQ 10 THEN LAST PP + 1 ELSE LAST PP;
HEAD COL1/I7 COL2/I7 COL3/I7 COL4/I7 COL5/I7
ON TABLE SET HOLDLIST PRINTONLY
ON TABLE HOLD AS J1 FORMAT ALPHA
END
-RUN
-* Now the tricky part: add a record containing the totals
-* It should be in the last bucket in the next column
-* Note: One should check if the number of rows is a multiple of 7. I didn't!
TABLE FILE J1
SUM MAX.PP LST.LL
ON TABLE HOLD AS PP
END
-RUN
-READFILE PP
-SET &LL=&LL+10;
-* Save the number of buckets
-SET &BUCKETS=&PP;
-RUN
-* Totals appended to the rows
FILEDEF J1 DISK J1.FTM (APPEND
TABLE FILE JARVES
SUM 
COMPUTE 
LL/I3=&LL;
PP/I3=&PP;
TOTS/A7='Totals';
COL1/I7 COL2/I7 COL3/I7 COL4/I7 COL5/I7
ON TABLE SET HOLDLIST PRINTONLY
ON TABLE SAVE AS J1
END
-RUN
-* Even trickier: create column heading records, one per bucket
DEFINE FILE J1
XLL/I3 WITH LL=0;
XPP/I3=1 + LAST XPP;
XHEAD/A7='HEADING';
XCOL1/A7='COL1';
XCOL2/A7='COL2';
XCOL3/A7='COL3';
XCOL4/A7='COL4';
XCOL5/A7='COL5';
END
TABLE FILE J1
PRINT 
XLL
XPP
XHEAD
XCOL1
XCOL2
XCOL3
XCOL4
XCOL5
IF READLIMIT EQ &BUCKETS
ON TABLE HOLD AS J2 FORMAT ALPHA
END
-RUN
-* And append the rows
FILEDEF J2 DISK J2.FTM (APPEND
TABLEF FILE J1
PRINT *
ON TABLE SAVE AS J2
END
-RUN
-* Last trick: alternate master
-* this will allow to pivot columns to rows and create the buckets
EX -LINES 8 EDAPUT MASTER,JJ,C,MEM
 FILENAME=J2      , SUFFIX=FIX     
 SEGMENT=J2, SEGTYPE=S0, $
 FIELDNAME=XLL, ALIAS=E01, USAGE=I3, ACTUAL=A03, $
 FIELDNAME=XPP, ALIAS=E02, USAGE=I3, ACTUAL=A03, $
 SEGMENT=DATA, PARENT=J2, OCCURS=VARIABLE
 FIELDNAME=XVAL,  ALIAS=XVAL, USAGE=A7, ACTUAL=A07, $
 FIELDNAME=XNUM, ALIAS=ORDER, USAGE=I4, ACTUAL=I4, $
-RUN
-* OUTPUT!
FILEDEF JJ DISK J2.FTM
TABLE FILE JJ
SUM XVAL
BY XPP NOPRINT SUBFOOT
" "
BY XNUM NOPRINT
ACROSS XLL NOPRINT
END

Thanks Danny.

I have tried your solution and it worked. I have added grid and not able to remove the grid lines after the totals(no data).

Thanks,
Jarvas

Jarves,
I'm glad that this solved your request.
Your problem with the grids is that "border" is not an attribute that can be changed by WHEN. You could ask for a New Feature...
