[SOLVED] Fun with Compound reports

I have a report that contains 6 compound reports which do a column-total at the end of each one. Is there any way to get a grand total of all the column-totals from each report?

Here is an example

SET COMPOUND OPEN
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ENGLAND'
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
END
SET COMPOUND CLOSE
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ITALY'
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
END

I want a row (at the bottom) that will show a grand total of
column-total for England
column-total for Italy

Thanks
JV

If the data comes from the same table (as in your example) I would do something like this:

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COMPUTE LABEL1/A30 = 'COLUMN TOTAL FOR ' | COUNTRY;
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY IN ('ENGLAND', 'ITALY');
ON TABLE HOLD AS HTOTALS
END

SET COMPOUND OPEN
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ENGLAND'
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ITALY'
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
END

SET COMPOUND CLOSE
TABLE FILE HTOTALS
PRINT 
LABEL1 AS ''
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
END

If the data comes from different tables, I would first calculate the totals into two different hold files, then use MORE to concatenate them:

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COMPUTE LABEL1/A30 = 'COLUMN TOTAL FOR ' | COUNTRY;
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ENGLAND';
ON TABLE HOLD AS HTOTAL1
END

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COMPUTE LABEL1/A30 = 'COLUMN TOTAL FOR ' | COUNTRY;
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ITALY';
ON TABLE HOLD AS HTOTAL2
END

SET COMPOUND OPEN
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ENGLAND'
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ITALY'
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
END

SET COMPOUND CLOSE
TABLE FILE HTOTAL1
PRINT 
LABEL1 AS ''
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES

MORE
FILE HTOTAL2
END

Ok, Francis this helps, but the more I look at it I think all I need to do is put another report in the compound that prints a total for everything and only print the total column for that report.

How would I only print the Total Vol row for this?

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT *
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL VOL';
END

You should only specify the measures, and not use *
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COMPUTE LABEL1/A10 = 'TOTAL'; AS ''
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
SALES
END

And all along, until I completed reading the above post, I was expecting that "Fun with Compound reports" was going to be a bit of a dichotomy, or at least a point of frustration. I personally like the Compound Reports.

Nice job Francis.
