Subfoot in Grandtotal

I have to display a value in the subfoot of every subtotal. Hence I am using
ON X SUBFOOT
"Also, in order to have a grand total, I am also using
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'Total'
The values in V_ABC is getting displayed in the subfoot of every subtotal. However, in case of grand total, the value is coming after a gap of 1 line. I want to avoid this gap and display the values for the grand total just as for the rest of the subtotals.

Sample output which I am getting:
A
Total A
V_ABC1
B
Total B
V_ABC2
Total AB

V_ABCX

As shown above, the last value of V_ABC, i.e. V_ABCX is being displayed after leaving a gap of 1 line after the grand total - Total AB. Please suggest a workaround to avoid this gap.

Regards
Syed

Syed,

First things first, it would help us to help you if you could add your version and platform to your signature. That way we know to what platform etc. the question relates.

Secondly, with this sort of question it sometimes helps you if you try to recreate your problem using one of the sample databases supplied with the installation - in this instance I would use GGSALES rather than CAR.

So, in an attempt to recreate your problem I wrote -
TABLE FILE GGSALES
SUM DOLLARS
BY REGION
BY ST
BY PRODUCT
ON ST SUBFOOT
"Total for State <ST : <SUM.DOLLARS"
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'Grand Total'
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOPAGE
ON TABLE SET LINES 99999
END
-RUN

but I do not get a blank line between the last SUBFOOT and the Grand Total.

Try to use the code as a basis to reproduce your problem so that we may assist you more.

Hi Tony,
Thanks for your suggestion. I will include the details in my signature. For now, I am using WebFOCUS 7.1.4 and DB2 tables as the backend.
FYI I am using a recompute for getting the subtotals and a column-total for getting the grand total. So the recomputed fields occur before the subfoot.
Eg.
A
Total A - (Recompute)
V_ABC1 - (Subfoot)

Similarly, for column-total, the total comes first and then the last subfoot value.
Eg.
Total AB - (Column-total)

V_ABCX - (Subfoot)

As shown above, there exists a blank line between the column-total row and the last subfoot row. Let me know if you have any other queries regarding this.

Syed,

As I suggested above, try and reproduce your problem using GGSALES. That way we can run your code and see if we can notice where you might make a change to remove your problem. Without so much as a sniff at what you are coding we have no chance to assist you.

So, come up with that example.
