[SOLVED] How to conditionally suppress column title?

I have a situation similar to that in the following sample procedure. I have a calculated field '%total'. It does not always have data for all ACROSS values. For instance, it has no data for the "CONVERTIBLE" and "HARDTOP" in the output of the sample procedure. I want to hide the display of the column title "%total" in those cases. Can it be done?

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
SALES AS 'Total'
BY LOWEST COUNTRY

SUM
SALES
COMPUTE %total/D3%S = SALES*100/C1; AS ' %total'
BY LOWEST COUNTRY
ACROSS BODYTYPE
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = endeflt,
$
ENDSTYLE
END

Please add the code used in "endeflt" which needs to be an parameter to a -INCLUDE (not INCLUDE).

Also, please place all code within the code brackets as seen in the rightmost icons above. < / >

Coulmn header is made before all of the data is known.
That means that you can't decide to not print the column title depending on some criterium that is not yet clear.

Doug, that is the correct syntax for including a stylesheet that's a .STY file type.

If its only HTML, then you could use javascript to manipulate the report in the browser.

HIDENULLACRS ??

The HIDENULLACRS parameter hides the display of ACROSS groups containing only null columns.

The syntax is:

SET HIDENULLACRS = {ON|OFF}
where:

ON
Hides columns with missing data in ACROSS groups within a BY-generated page break.

OFF
Does not hide columns. OFF is the default value.

Nice suggestion George!

But to make it work, it appears that all of the fields in the across group (both SALESX and %total, in this case) must have MISSING turned on:

SET HIDENULLACRS = ON
SET NODATA = ''
-*
DEFINE FILE CAR
 SALESX/D8 MISSING ON = IF (SALES EQ 0) THEN MISSING ELSE SALES ;
END
-*
TABLE FILE CAR
 SUM SALES AS 'Total'
 BY LOWEST COUNTRY

 SUM SALESX AS 'Sales'
 COMPUTE %total/D3%S MISSING ON = SALESX*100/C1; AS ' %total'
 BY LOWEST COUNTRY
 ACROSS BODYTYPE
 ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD 
 ON TABLE NOTOTAL
 ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
 ON TABLE SET STYLE *
  INCLUDE = endeflt, $
 ENDSTYLE
 ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
END
