[CLOSED] Subhead issue
Hi,

subhead repeats twice at few pages. Can anyone let me know the fix for the same. (Something wrong with my WHEN condition on subheads)

TABLE FILE GGSALES
PRINT STCD AS '' DOLLARS AS ''
AND COMPUTE ROWCNT/I9 = LAST ROWCNT + 1; NOPRINT
BY CATEGORY NOPRINT
BY STCD NOPRINT
BY TOTAL ROWCNT NOPRINT
WHERE STCD IN ('R1109','R1044')
HEADING
"HEADING"

ON TABLE SUBHEAD
"TABLE SUBHEADING"

ON ROWCNT SUBHEAD
""Red STORE"
WHEN (STCD NE LAST STCD OR TABPAGENO NE LAST TABPAGENO) AND STCD EQ 'R1109';


ON ROWCNT SUBHEAD
""Green STORE"
WHEN (STCD NE LAST STCD OR TABPAGENO NE LAST TABPAGENO) AND STCD EQ 'R1044';


ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET PAGE NOPAGE
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
UNITS=IN,
PAGESIZE=LEGAL,
ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,
SIZE=8,
FONT=ARIAL,
BOTTOMMARGIN=0,
TOPMARGIN=0,
LEFTMARGIN=0.30,
GRID=ON,
SQUEEZE=ON,
$


TYPE=SUBHEAD,JUSTIFY=RIGHT,SIZE=15,WIDTH=2.50, WRAP=2.50,BACKCOLOR=RED, WHEN = STCD EQ 'R1109',$
TYPE=SUBHEAD,JUSTIFY=RIGHT,SIZE=15,WIDTH=2.50, WRAP=2.50,BACKCOLOR=GREEN, WHEN = STCD EQ 'R1044',$

TYPE=HEADING,SIZE=6,STYLE=BOLD,FONT=ARIAL,HEADALIGN=BODY,BORDER=OFF,$
TYPE=REPORT,LINEBREAK='CR',$
TYPE=REPORT,
GRID=ON,
FONT='TIMES NEW ROMAN',
SIZE=10,
BACKCOLOR='NONE',

ENDSTYLE
END
-EXIT



Thanks,
Yash

Read this: Any explanation ( strange behaviour ) ?!?. I would do further searches for LAST TABPAGENO.

TABPAGENO is a special field and it appears LAST TABPAGENO is always zero, so you may not be able to use that syntax.

This might illustrate the issue:

TABLE FILE GGSALES
PRINT 
STCD AS '' DOLLARS AS ''
COMPUTE ROWCNT/I9 = LAST ROWCNT + 1; 
TABPAGENO
COMPUTE LAST_TABPAGENO/I9 = LAST TABPAGENO;
BY CATEGORY 
BY STCD 
BY TOTAL ROWCNT 
WHERE STCD IN ('R1109','R1044')
HEADING
"HEADING"

ON TABLE SUBHEAD
"TABLE SUBHEADING"

ON ROWCNT SUBHEAD
" "
"RED STORE"
WHEN (STCD NE LAST STCD OR TABPAGENO NE LAST TABPAGENO) AND STCD EQ 'R1109';

ON ROWCNT SUBHEAD
" "
"GREEN STORE"
WHEN (STCD NE LAST STCD OR TABPAGENO NE LAST TABPAGENO) AND STCD EQ 'R1044';

ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET PAGE NOPAGE
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT,
UNITS=IN, PAGESIZE=LEGAL, ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE, SIZE=8, FONT=ARIAL, BOTTOMMARGIN=0.30, TOPMARGIN=0, LEFTMARGIN=0.30, SQUEEZE=ON,$

TYPE=SUBHEAD,JUSTIFY=RIGHT,SIZE=15,WIDTH=2.50, WRAP=2.50,BACKCOLOR=RED, WHEN = STCD EQ 'R1109',$
TYPE=SUBHEAD,JUSTIFY=RIGHT,SIZE=15,WIDTH=2.50, WRAP=2.50,BACKCOLOR=GREEN, WHEN = STCD EQ 'R1044',$

TYPE=HEADING,SIZE=6,STYLE=BOLD,FONT=ARIAL,HEADALIGN=BODY,BORDER=OFF,$
TYPE=REPORT,LINEBREAK='CR',$
TYPE=REPORT,
GRID=ON,
FONT='TIMES NEW ROMAN',
SIZE=10,
BACKCOLOR='NONE',

ENDSTYLE
END

Meanwhile: you posted your code without
[code]
[/code]
tags, so it's possible that some of your code got slightly mangled - particularly the SUBHEAD - I imagine each subhead has two lines - one blank and one with text.

A possible solution to your problem might be to add some bottom margin (BOTTOMMARGIN=0.30) because I think you're getting the first duplicate heading because of overflow and the second because of your ON statement. Adding the .3 bottom margin seems to eliminate the first duplicate.

In the past, when I worked with PDF output, I could control the number of lines per page with SET LINES=30, but this does not seem to work any more. Then, I've also seen LINES-PER-PAGE in the stylesheet, but I think this is/was for Active HTML. Nevertheless, I think your problem is because of overflow...
