Conditional Subhead

Hi all,

Here is my monday issue. I'm trying to use the conditional clause When in my subhead but it doesn't as I would.
my request is : 

TABLE FILE TEST
PRINT 
COMPUTE TOTO/A300 = POIDS || '%' || COURS AS ''

BY IDTEST
BY FLAG
BY IDRESTRICKING

ON IDTEST SUBHEAD 
"Caracteristique du produit"
" blabla"

ON IDRESTRICKING
"Sequence ludo"
WHEN FLAG EQ 1

ON IDRESTRICKING
"Restricking"
""
"Special output1"
"Special output2"
"Special output3"
WHEN FLAG GT 1;

WHERE RACINE EQ XXXX
END


The column Flag contains data as 1 , 2, 3,
4, ...

I need to output specific datas when flag equals 1 others data when flag greater than 1.

What occurs is :
-When I only put the first when (flag eq 1) I have the subhead above the line containing flag value
- When I put the two conditionnals phrase I only have subhead for the second condition.

I also tried to set my condition on the value '2' (when flag EQ 2 and when flag GT 2 )and it works fine . I can't explain when I test the value '1' I lose my lines where flag eq 1 ?

any idea

no idea whether this is your problem or not,
but move this filter out of the way of your conditional SUBTOTAL statement.
Nice to learn that french for 'blahblah' is 'blabla' Smiler

can you write example w/ CAR file, please so we can run for you.

A condition test on a subhead basically means this is the subhead for this condition, so if you want other information that might appear in another subhead, repeat it if that is what you are attempting. Bon Chance.

Did you close all your WHENs and WHEREs (and COMPUTEs) with semicolons?

Leah : Thanks for your support. I don't undestand everything you told me because i need the two conditions depending of the value of the flag field on my subhead.

JG : I tried your sample with the car file and it works . I ca^'t explain when flag is set to 1 webfocus don't output it ....

Merci à tous

Ludo,

Try Sticking in an intermediate hold file. Stranger things have been known.

When posting code for others to review, do them the courtesy of copying it accurately -- what you provided obviously cannot execute:

TABLE FILE TEST
PRINT 
COMPUTE TOTO/A300 = POIDS || '%' || COURS AS ''     <== missing ; 
                                          

BY IDTEST
BY FLAG
BY IDRESTRICKING

ON IDTEST SUBHEAD 
"Caracteristique du produit"
" blabla"

ON IDRESTRICKING                                    <== missing "SUBHEAD" keyword
"Sequence ludo"
WHEN FLAG EQ 1                                 

ON IDRESTRICKING                                    <== ditto
"Restricking"
""
"Special output1"
"Special output2"
"Special output3"
WHEN FLAG GT 1;

WHERE RACINE EQ XXXX            
END
