Hi,

I am trying to create a report in EXL2K to display the values from different countries in different Tabs..

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR
SALES
BY COUNTRY NOPRINT
BY SEATS NOPRINT
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K BYTOC
END

but I am trying to reorder these tabs according to the SEATS

Is there any way I can do that.

Thanks in Advance,
pvparuc

I used SALES instead of SEATS because a COUNTRY can have more than one number of SEATS and Excel will not allow duplicate tab names. I also sorted SALES highest to lowest so the COUNTRY with the highest SALES appears first in the spreadsheet. By appending blanks to the front of the COUNTRY name based on the size of total SALES, I was able to trick WebFOCUS into sorting the countries by SALES for the BYTOC. The blanks in front of the COUNTRY names are compressed and disappear when displayed as spreadsheet tab names.

SET ASNAMES = ON
SET HOLDLIST = PRINTONLY
-*
TABLE FILE CAR
 SUM
  SALES AS 'COUNTRY_SALES'
 BY COUNTRY
 PRINT
  CAR
  SALES
 BY COUNTRY
 ON TABLE HOLD AS HOLD1
END
-*
TABLE FILE HOLD1
 PRINT
  CAR
  SALES
  COMPUTE BLANKS/A10V  = IF (COUNTRY_SALES EQ LAST COUNTRY_SALES) THEN LAST BLANKS ELSE (' ' | LAST BLANKS);
  COMPUTE SORT_KEY/A15 = BLANKS | COUNTRY ;
 BY HIGHEST COUNTRY_SALES
 ON TABLE HOLD AS HOLD2
END
-*
TABLE FILE HOLD2
 PRINT
  CAR
  SALES/I9C
 BY HIGHEST SORT_KEY NOPRINT
 ON SORT_KEY SUBTOTAL
 ON TABLE NOTOTAL
 ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K BYTOC
END
