How do I get myTOTAL to show TOTAL SUM of DEALER_COST for ALL CAR? I am not sure if I can accomplish this by DEFINE or do I need to use MATCH?

I am trying to get the following output

CAR DEALER_COST myTOTAL
ALFA ROMEO 16,235 143,794
AUDI 5,063 143,794
BMW 49,500 143,794
DATSUN 2,626 143,794
JAGUAR 18,621 143,794
JENSEN 14,940 143,794
MASERATI 25,000 143,794
PEUGEOT 4,631 143,794
TOYOTA 2,886 143,794
TRIUMPH 4,292 143,794


DEFINE FILE CAR
myTOTAL/D12.2= ??? ;
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
DEALER_COST
myTOTAL
BY CAR
END

Hey Francis. Look what I discovered. I had recently been playing with the WITHIN statement and thought I would try this:

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM DEALER_COST DEALER_COST WITHIN TABLE
BY CAR
END

I love the WITHIN statement.


Thanks!

Wow, Mickey - I did not know that!!!
quote:
You can also use WITHIN TABLE, which allows you to return the original value within a
request command. The WITHIN TABLE command can also be used when an ACROSS phrase
is needed without a BY phrase. Otherwise, a single WITHIN phrase requires a BY phrase.
Now that's a mouthful!

What I was trying to get is the SUM TOTAL for the distinct value... Let me know what I am doing wrong

-* File sum_total2.fex
SET ASNAMES=ON


TABLE FILE CAR
SUM 'CNT.DST.DEALER_COST' AS 'DEALERCOST2'
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS H001
END


TABLE FILE H001
SUM
'CNT.DST.DEALER_COST' AS 'TDEALER_COST'
SUM
DEALER_COST
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS H002
END
TABLE FILE H002
PRINT
*
BY CAR

END

Try this:

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
DEALER_COST
TOT.DEALER_COST
BY CAR
END

I got the exact results you put in your original post.

ALL 3 answers are good, but how do I incorporate that to SUM 'CNT.DST.***' on my last post?

Victoria, My expected result is

PAGE 1

CAR DEALERCOST2 TDEALER_COST
ALFA ROMEO 2 17
AUDI 1 17
BMW 6 17
DATSUN 1 17
JAGUAR 2 17
JENSEN 1 17
MASERATI 1 17
PEUGEOT 1 17
TOYOTA 1 17

I am trying to SUM TOTAL on the CNT.DST.xxxx

Assuming you want TOTAL COUNT OF THE CARS within the cars a count might work for you.
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM CNT.DST.MODEL AS 'COUNT'
DEALER_COST
BY CAR
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL
END

Leah, I want another column where I get the TOTAL for the Distinct Counter for DEALER_COST

SET ASNAMES=ON
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM 'CNT.DST.DEALER_COST' AS 'DEALERCOST2'
BY CAR
-*ON TABLE HOLD AS H001
END

Sayed,

So you want something like this ?
DEFINE FILE CAR
  DST_COUNT/I3 WITH DEALER_COST = IF DEALER_COST NE LAST DEALER_COST THEN 1 ELSE 0;
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM DST_COUNT                  AS 'Distinct,Cost,Count'
    TOT.DST_COUNT WITHIN TABLE AS 'Total,Dealer,Costs'
 BY CAR
 ON TABLE SUMMARIZE DST_COUNT
END
-RUN

Try this:

SET ASNAMES=ON

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
CNT.DST.DEALER_COST AS 'DEALERCOST2'
BY CAR
ON TABLE HOLD AS H001
END


MATCH FILE H001
SUM
TOT.DEALERCOST2 AS 'TOTAL'
BY CAR
RUN

FILE H001
SUM
DEALERCOST2
BY CAR
AFTER MATCH HOLD AS H002 OLD-OR-NEW
END
TABLE FILE H002
PRINT
DEALERCOST2
TOTAL
BY CAR
END

I get, with a bit of help from McGyver:

DEFINE FILE CAR
BLANK/A1 WITH CAR = ' ';
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM CNT.DST.DEALER_COST
BY BLANK
ON TABLE HOLD
END
JOIN BLANK WITH CAR IN CAR TO BLANK IN HOLD AS H
DEFINE FILE CAR
BLANK/A1 WITH CAR = ' ';
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM CNT.DST.DEALER_COST
H.DEALER_COST
BY CAR
END

Should give the results that sayed asked for at 4:18...

It is just that I am wary of using LAST with a non-key field in case there are duplicate values - been bitten by that before.
