We have a field called SOLDBY with values like LB, KG, UN and so on.

In Dev Studio I have done everything I can think of to remove the cell borders that appear under the ACROSS (and to the right of the CCODE field)- including making the borders the same colour as the background, setting the line width to none and turning the borders off. But they persist. Irritating !!

All suggestions are welcome ....

DEFINE FILE SOMEFILE
QRTR/Q = BLDATE;
COUNTRY/A2=IF CCODE EQ 'USXM' THEN 'XM' ELSE COUNTRY;
AREA/A16=
IF COUNTRY EQ 'AN' OR 'BA' OR 'CU' OR 'GD' OR 'GR' OR 'AR'
OR 'GY' OR 'BE' OR 'DO' OR 'BH' OR 'CA' OR 'GA' OR 'SL'
OR 'HA' OR 'JA' OR 'MA' OR 'SU' OR 'TR' OR 'XM'
THEN 'CARIBBEAN' ELSE
IF COUNTRY EQ 'CR' OR 'GU' OR 'HO' OR 'NI' OR 'PA' OR 'SA' OR 'PR' OR 'DR' OR 'MX'
THEN 'CENTRAL AMERICA' ELSE
IF COUNTRY EQ 'US' THEN 'USA'
ELSE 'SOUTH AMERICA';
END

You could try to do this with an external stylesheet.
Suppose there is an external stylesheet named mystyle.css, containing just this one line:

.with { border: solid 1 #032610;}

You can reference this file in your code and use the style that's defvined there, for example:

SET CSSURL = /approot/SESSION/mystyle.css

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT SALES
BY    COUNTRY 
BY    CAR 
BY    MODEL 
ACROSS BODYTYPE AS ' '
ACROSS SEATS AS ''

ON TABLE SUBHEAD
"BY COUNTRY AND CAR"
"Report printed on <+0>&DATEtrMDYY <+0> "
ON TABLE SUBFOOT
"This report runs from the file &FOCFEXNAME "
ON TABLE SET PRINT ONLINE
ON TABLE SET PAGE NOLEAD
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     SQUEEZE=ON,
$
TYPE=REPORT, FONT='ARIAL', SIZE=10, COLOR='BLACK', STYLE=NORMAL,
     GRID=OFF, RIGHTGAP=0.125000, $
TYPE=DATA, class=with, $
TYPE=tabfooting, class=with, $
TYPE=TABHEADING, SIZE=12, COLOR='WHITE', BACKCOLOR=RGB(147 172 219),
     STYLE=BOLD, JUSTIFY=CENTER, $
TYPE=ACROSSVALUE, ACROSS=1, SIZE=10, COLOR='GREEN', $
TYPE=ACROSSVALUE, ACROSS=2, SIZE=10, COLOR='RED', $
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

Hope this helps ...

Oops ... I didn't see GamP's suggestion until today. Unfortunately the output where the issue arises is PDF, not HTML so the CSS stylesheet doesn't help. But thanks anyway !
