Hi,
Lets take an example of CAR file :
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
SEATS
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
BY MODEL
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'W GERMANY'
WHERE CAR EQ 'BMW'
END
-RUN
-EXIT

The output of the above will be :
COUNTRY CAR MODEL SEATS
W GERMANY BMW 2002 2 DOOR 5
2002 2 DOOR AUTO 4
3.0 SI 4 DOOR 5
3.0 SI 4 DOOR AUTO 5

Iam trying to get only the details where the Seats values are different(In this case i need to pull the Model : 2002 2 DOOR AUTO where the number of Seats are 4 which is uncommon among the rest of the values i.e.,5).
Can anyone tell me how to get this done as this is very urgent?Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks a lot in advance!

What makes a value uncommon? When it occurs only once, twice?

For the example you give the following would work, but this is because I specify that I only want rows with distinct values in the column SEATS.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
CNT.SEATS NOPRINT
BY SEATS NOPRINT
PRINT
SEATS
BY SEATS NOPRINT
BY MODEL
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'W GERMANY'
WHERE CAR EQ 'BMW'
WHERE TOTAL CNT.SEATS EQ 1
END

Without a better understanding of how you define uncommon I can't be more help.

Isn't everything?

A better, more complete explanation, of your requirement would be very helpful.

From what I gather, from what you did say, I'd prompt for the dissimilar value (the value which I want do use in my dissimilar filtering) and use a NE in my table file request.

Try something like this:

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
SEATS
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
RANKED BY SEATS
WHERE COUNTRY EQ 'W GERMANY'
WHERE CAR EQ 'BMW'
END
--

If you are using oracle, you can try RANK fucntion using Partition by clause to rank the elements based on the occurance.
