Hi,

In my table I am using PRINTPLUS and TABLE SUBFOOT. The PRINTPLUS does his part proper but I am not getting what I wanted.

The code looks like this,

SET PRINTPLUS=ON
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT CAR MODEL_COST
BY COUNTRY
FOOTING
"This line is for footing"
ON TABLE SUBFOOT
"this is for subfooting"
ON TABLE SET PAGE NO-LEAD
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
end
-RUN

when you run this, the subfoot value will show above the footing bcoz of PRINTPLUS. I am using PRINTPLUS to solve other formating issue and I need FOOTING to be display ahead of SUBFOOTING. Is there any way to do this?

Hope I put my question proper.

Thanks

I believe that is as designed. Can you make the first SubFoot line..the Footing?

Try

DEFINE FILE CAR
ONE/I1 WITH COUNTRY = 1 ;
END

...

BY COUNTRY NOPRINT AND SUBFOOT

instead of the ON TABLE - might work!

ON TABLE SUBFOOT
"this is for subfooting"


Try changing to:

ON TABLE SUBFOOT PAGE-BREAK
"this is for subfooting"


Thanks!

Try the following instead:

SET PRINTPLUS=ON
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT CAR MODEL RCOST
BY COUNTRY
FOOTING
"This line is for footing"
ON TABLE PAGE-BREAK AND SUBFOOT
"this is for subfooting"
ON TABLE SET PAGE NO-LEAD
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
END


Thanks!

Hello Mickey,

If I try this way then in PDF, I will get one extra page. That will show only the subfoot text. We dont want like that.

Thanks

Kamesh,

As noted by Prarie the PRINTPLUS intentionally forces ON TABLE SUBFOOT to appear before the FOOTING.

The following is antoher idea that may work for you. In order for this to work you MUST be using page numbers (TABPAGENO) and total pages (TABLASTPAGE) on the report or else it won't work.

SET PRINTPLUS=ON
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT CAR MODEL RCOST
COMPUTE FINALFOOTING/A100=
IF (TABPAGENO NE TABLASTPAGE)
THEN '' ELSE 'This is the FINAL LINE'; NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY PAGE-BREAK
HEADING
"PAGE <TABPAGENO OF <TABLASTPAGE"
FOOTING
"This line is for footing"
"<FINALFOOTING"
ON TABLE SUBFOOT
"this is for subfooting"
ON TABLE SET PAGE NO-LEAD
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
END


Thanks!
