Here's another one.

-DEFAULT &WFFMT        = 'PDF'

DEFINE FILE CAR
MODBOD/A40 = MODEL || (' ' | BODYTYPE);
END
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT SEATS
BY COUNTRY
ACROSS MODBOD AS ''
IF COUNTRY EQ 'ITALY' OR 'ENGLAND'
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT &WFFMT
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     UNITS=IN,
     SQUEEZE=ON,
     ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,$
TYPE=REPORT, FONT='VERDANA', SIZE=8,$
TYPE=ACROSSVALUE, WRAP=2.00, WIDTH=2.00,$
TYPE=ACROSSTITLE, WRAP=2.00, WIDTH=2.00,$
ENDSTYLE
END

If I run this code in HTML, the column headers get wrapped over several lines.
But in PDF I seem to be unable to have the values in the acrosstitle wrapped. They show on one line, no matter what I do.
Any idea(s)?

Dare I say this is a bug, and it has been around for a very long time?

I tried using the GUI in Dev Studio to create a simple report with an ACROSS. You can double-click the ACROSS field, select "Active Object" as "Column Title And Data" then change "Column Layout" to "Wrap" with "Limit to" 1.00 inches. It generates some code that does not work - the wrap is not applied, and I think the generated code is no good:

TYPE=REPORT,
     COLUMN=N0,
     WRAP=1.250000,
$
TYPE=REPORT,
     COLUMN=N1,
     WRAP=1.000000,
$

Column N0 is my ACROSS field, column N1 is my PRINT field.
I think I'll open a case.

Divide and conquer:

-DEFAULT &WFFMT        = 'PDF'
-SET &H=IF &WFFMT NE 'PDF' THEN ' ' ELSE '-*';
-SET &P=IF &WFFMT EQ 'PDF' THEN ' ' ELSE '-*';

DEFINE FILE CAR
 MODBOD/A40 = MODEL || (' ' | BODYTYPE);
 PARAG/A40 = PARAG(40, MODBOD, '\', 20, 'A40');
 PART1/A20 = GETTOK(PARAG, 40, 1, '\', 20, 'A20');
 PART2/A20 = GETTOK(PARAG, 40, 2, '\', 20, 'A20');
END
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT SEATS
BY COUNTRY
-* for HTML:
&H.EVAL ACROSS MODBOD AS ''
-* for PDF:
&P.EVAL ACROSS MODBOD NOPRINT
&P.EVAL ACROSS PART1 AS ''
&P.EVAL ACROSS PART2 AS ''

IF COUNTRY EQ 'ITALY' OR 'ENGLAND'
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT &WFFMT
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     UNITS=IN,
     SQUEEZE=ON,
     ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,$
TYPE=REPORT, FONT='VERDANA', SIZE=8,$
ENDSTYLE
END

Francis, That's exactly what I also found.

Jack - Smart! I'll try to use your approach in my situation, it seems very doable.

Thanks for your thoughts!

Welcome, Gerard. (and Shrikant too)
