[CLOSED] Report Header in CSV extract
Hi All,
I was wondering if we can have Report header/footer in CSV report or not. I tried HEADING and FOOTING for this but it looks like webfocus is completely ignoring it and only report (with columns header and data) is getting popped up.
Is it something not feasible in webfocus CSV report? Any guidance would be very helpful.

Many Thanks.

With a little search, if I understand properly your need to also include column's heading, you will have found that :
ON TABLE HOLD AS abc FORMAT COM is for CSV
and that
ON TABLE HOLD AS abc FORMAT COMT is for CSV with titles

Is that what your looking for ?

If you're talking pure HEADING and FOOTING (from the report formatting) I don't think that it's something that you can perform since a CSV format save the DATA, not the report format/layout.
