I'm trying to count the number of proficient students and non-proficient students by defining I9 counters and if testing the proficiency fields. If all 4 are "P" the kid is proficient if not, he's non-proficient. I put the value of the counter in the footing, but its always 0. What am I missing

Are you looking for something like this:

No, I'm checking flags on the students record that indicate whether or not he has passed the prof tests. If they are all on I want to count him as 'proficient'. I also have to count the students who are non-proficient in all 4 categories, so once I figure out how to count one, I can count the others.

Perhaps if you added ST. to the field in the footing ?



Also when you post code, please put it in the code tags.

[CODE]

[/CODE]

OK Let's try this again

[TABLE FILE ASTU_STUDENT
PRINT
'ASTU_STUDENT.ASTU_STUDENT.PERMNUM' AS 'STD ID'
'ASTU_STUDENT.ASTU_STUDENT.COUNSELOR' AS 'TEAM'
'ATCH_TEACHER.ATCH_TEACHER.LASTNAME' AS 'TEACHER,LAST NAME'
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.READING_PF' AS 'READING P/F'
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.WRITING_PF' AS 'WRITING P/F'
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.MATH_PF' AS 'MATH P/F'
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.SCIENCE_PF' AS 'SCIENCE P/F']

this is the part that doesn't seem to work


[
COMPUTE PROF_STD/I9 = IF ('SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.READING_PF' EQ 'P' AND
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.WRITING_PF' EQ 'P' AND
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.MATH_PF' EQ 'P' AND
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.SCIENCE_PF' EQ 'P') THEN 1 ELSE 0; NOPRINT
]

ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM OFF ]

Do you have more than one "schoolnum" or is this report limited to a selected "schoolnum"?

Just the one school

Isn't it just simpler to do this as a DEFINE?

DEFINE FILE ASTU_STUDENT
PROF_STD/I9 = IF ('SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.READING_PF' EQ 'P' AND 
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.WRITING_PF' EQ 'P' AND
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.MATH_PF' EQ 'P' AND
'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.SCIENCE_PF' EQ 'P') THEN 1 ELSE 0;
END

Or even:

DEFINE FILE ASTU_STUDENT
PROF_READING/I9 = IF 'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.READING_PF' EQ 'P' THEN 1 ELSE 0;
PROF_WRITING/I9 = IF 'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.WRITING_PF' EQ 'P' THEN 1 ELSE 0;
PROF_MATH/I9 = IF 'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.MATH_PF' EQ 'P' THEN 1 ELSE 0;
PROF_SCIENCE/I9 = IF 'SPROF_SCORES.SPROF_SCORES.SCIENCE_PF' EQ 'P') THEN 1 ELSE 0;
PROFICIENT/I1 = IF PROF_READING + PROF_WRITING + PROF_MATH + PROF_SCIENCE EQ 4 THEN 1 ELSE 0
END

... Then just use PROFICIENT as your test.  You could easily expand this a wee bit to indicate those who are proficient on one area but not others.

After your final sort is completed hold data as "FDATA" and add the following code

DEFINE FILE FDATA
PROF_STAT/I9 = IF READING_PF||WRITING_PF||MATH_PF||SCIENCE_PF EQ 'PPPP' THEN 1 ELSE 0;
NUMPROF/I9 = LAST NUMPROF + PROF_STAT;
END

Just out of curiosity, why do you have tick marks (') around your field names?

Those are being generated by DevStudio nowadays. You always get fully qualified fieldnames and they come with the tick marks.

That would explain why I don't see them.

Those are being generated by the GUI. They don't appear when you code via the Text Editor...

OK, I've got it working now.

Your solution might help others in the future. Please post the code or an explanation.

Cheers,
