Column title for LIST

Is it possible to use a different column title for the autogenerated "LIST" field? The report user would like it to be "#", rather than the word "LIST".

This is From IBI

There is no way to turn off the column title for LIST. You can work around
this by coloring the column title for LIST white, put AS ' ' for the rest
of the column titles and then position your column titles within your HEADING.

Example:

TABLE FILE CAR
LIST CAR AS ' ' COUNTRY AS ' '
HEADING
" # <+0 CAR <+0 COUNTRY"
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=TITLE, COLUMN=N1, COLOR='WHITE',$
TYPE=HEADING, LINE=1, OBJECT=TEXT, ITEM=1, POSITION='N1',JUSTIFY=RIGHT,$
TYPE=HEADING, LINE=1, OBJECT=TEXT, ITEM=2, POSITION='N2', $
TYPE=HEADING, LINE=1, OBJECT=TEXT, ITEM=3, POSITION='N3', $
ENDSTYLE
END

something like this?

TABLE FILE CAR
LIST
MODEL
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE HOLD
END
TABLE FILE HOLD
PRINT LIST AS '#'
BY COUNTRY
BY MODEL
END

Actually, I found this little nugget in another report:

COMPUTE RANK/I5 = IF THE_TABLE.SORT_COLUMN_VALUE EQ LAST THE_TABLE.SORT_COLUMN_VALUE THEN ( RANK + 1 ) ELSE 1;
AS '#'

With this, I use PRINT, instead of LIST.

Thanks Kamesh --

Stumbled upon your solution while lurking, and it was just what I needed.

I don't know if it's a valid hesitation at all, but I hesitate to use HOLD files unless necessary. I went with the COMPUTE approach, and it seems to be working.

Thanks.
