[Solved] Drill Downs in Across Data

This is a follow-up to earlier questions on conditional drill downs. Consider the following program:

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM DCOST
ACROSS COUNTRY
BY MODEL
END

(Please ignore the fact that the request makes no business sense.) I want to create a conditional drill down on the DCOST values when the cell value is greater than 5,000 but less than 15,000. I assume I have to create a computed field to get around the fact that WHEN cannot handle compound logical statements; for example,

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM DCOST
COMPUTE SELIND/A1 = IF DCOST GT 5000 AND DCOST LT 15000 THEN ‘Y’ ELSE ‘N’; NOPRINT
ACROSS COUNTRY
BY MODEL
END

TYPE=DATA, ACROSSCOLUMN=N1, WHEN=?? EQ ‘Y’, FOCEXEC=dd, $

There is a clear solution if the number of across columns is known and fixed. However, in my real life example the number of columns is unknown and may be large.

Suggestions are welcome.

I ran the following code, with and without the WHERE statement, as an example of different numbers of columns, and I get good / expected results, i.e: drilldowns work either way when SELIND EQ 'Y'.

-SET &MinVal = 5000 ;
-SET &MaxVal = 15000 ;
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM DCOST AS 'Dealer Cost'
COMPUTE SELIND/A1 = IF DCOST GT &MinVal AND DCOST LT &MaxVal THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N'; NOPRINT
ACROSS COUNTRY
BY MODEL
-*WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'ENGLAND' OR 'FRANCE' OR 'ITALY' 
HEADING
"Drilldown on Dealer Costs GT &MinVal and LT &MaxVal"
ON TABLE SET PAGE NOPAGE
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=DATA, ACROSSCOLUMN=N1, WHEN=SELIND EQ 'Y', FOCEXEC=FEX2, $
ENDSTYLE
END

Do you need more?

Thanks Doug. That must have been the only combination I didn't try. That should do it.
