"TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N1, FOCEXEC=..." and "ON TABLE SET STYLESHEET ..."
Hi gurus,
Are both combinations * ON TABLE SET STYLESHEET ... and * TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N1, FOCEXEC=... allowed for the same TABLE FILE request?
Can some one write some example how to use drill-thought and external stylesheet (using *.STY) in the same TABLE FILE request?
Thanks, Pranas

I think it's not possible to use both simultaneously.
Particularly, I always use ON TABLE SET STYLE * in every report and -INCLUDE in order to also use a general style.
ON TABLE SET STYLE * -* General style. -INCLUDE GENSTY -* Particular style. TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N1, FOCEXEC=... ENDSTYLE Regards, MikelThis message has been edited. Last edited by: <Mabel>,

i totally agree with Mikel. i use -INCLUDE as well to incorporate common style sheet elements within a set of fexes, and then customize each ON TABLE SET STYLE * with the dd's, etc that i need. I do one thing extra you might like...my drilldown fex names are set as &vars at the top of my fexes. so.. in all my fexes, &DD0 always means 'the same fex', &DD1 the next one, &DD2 the second one, etc. So, my -INCLUDE fexes can say for example: TYPE=DATA,COLUMN=C1,focexec=&DD0(...parms) so for a given group of fexes, most of the style sheet is the same, just the choice of drilldown fexe names change, and they're set at the top of the fex.
