I have tried different techniques for formating the report.. But No luck.
If you Execute the below CAR file. Column names should appear on Page # 3,5.
Real time: Data under ENGLAND can go to 20 pages. - Column Heading are not being displayed.

  
SET LINES = 14
DEFINE FILE CAR
SHEAD/I2 = IF COUNTRY NE 'W GERMANY' THEN 1 ELSE 2 ;
END
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR AS ''
MODEL AS ''
SEATS AS ''
BY SHEAD AS '' NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY AS '' NOPRINT
ON TABLE HEADING CENTER
"	"
" Report Heading Section - <TABPAGENO "
ON SHEAD SUBHEAD PAGE-BREAK
""
ON COUNTRY SUBHEAD
"	"
"<COUNTRY"
"Car-Make<+10>Car-Model<+10> Car-Seats"
ON TABLE FOOTING CENTER
"Page <TABPAGENO"
"	"
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOPAGE
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT WP
END


Thanks

You are always going to have issues with the column headings when they are done with ON COUNTRY SUBHEAD.

This is because they will only be done on a change of COUNTRY.

My suggestion would be.

1. add ON COUNTRY PAGE-BREAK.

This will fix the problem if the number of records is small for each COUNTRY.

2. Work out when to break the page your self

More difficult, but should work for all situations.

Or in a manner slightly different from Hua's suggestion: page break on country, put country name in the heading, and let WebFOCUS put the column headings on each page.

SET LINES = 14
-*
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
CAR AS 'Car-Make'
MODEL AS 'Car-Model'
SEATS AS 'Car-Seats'
BY COUNTRY PAGE-BREAK NOPRINT
ON TABLE HEADING CENTER
"Report Heading Section - <COUNTRY"
""
ON TABLE FOOTING CENTER
""
"Page <TABPAGENO"
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOPAGE
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT WP
END
