Does anyone know or has done a process that will skip a column in an Across statement.

For example:
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM DEALER_COST
BY COUNTRY
ACROSS BODYTYPE
ACROSS CAR
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
END

I would like to skip a column at each change in BODYTYPE, similar to the SKIP-LINE funcationality.

Thanks. --Mark

You may want to consider defining a new field, with bodytype, and including that in you table file request.

This may help get you going:

SET NODATA=''
SET HTMLCSS=ON
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
COMPUTE
CAR/A16 = 'ZZZZZ';
COMPUTE CAR_DISPLAY/A16 = '';
COMPUTE DEALER_COST/D7 = 0;
BY COUNTRY
BY BODYTYPE
ON TABLE HOLD AS HCAR1
END

DEFINE FILE CAR
CAR_DISPLAY/A16 = IF CAR EQ 'ZZZZZ' THEN '' ELSE CAR;
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM 
DEALER_COST/D7S AS ''
BY COUNTRY
ACROSS BODYTYPE AS ''
ACROSS CAR NOPRINT
ACROSS CAR_DISPLAY AS ''
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML

ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, SIZE=9, $
ENDSTYLE

MORE
FILE HCAR1
END
