The following example, combining FOCUS STYLE and CSS styles, works fine for me; drawing a border for a specific data column and top border for tabfooting.


TABLE FILE CAR
  SUM 
    SALES
    RCOST
    DCOST
  BY COUNTRY
  ON TABLE SUBFOOT
    "TOTAL:&|nbsp;&|nbsp;  ON TABLE SET PAGE NOPAGE
  ON TABLE HOLD FORMAT HTMTABLE
  ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF, $
     TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=P2, CLASS=rborder, $
     TYPE=TITLE, COLUMN=P2, CLASS=rborder, $
     TYPE=TABFOOTING, HEADALIGN=BODY, JUSTIFY=RIGHT, CLASS=tborder, $
     TYPE=TABFOOTING, ITEM=1, JUSTIFY=CENTER, CLASS=tborder, $
     TYPE=TABFOOTING, ITEM=2, CLASS=bborder, $
END
-RUN

-HTMLFORM BEGIN

!IBI.FIL.HOLD;
-HTMLFORM END
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Mikel

Hi,

I did not understand what exactly you need in the report.

If you want to add a line just after every total then you can do so by using
ON TABLE SUBTOTAL UNDERLINE command. This will give you the line until the end of the field.
If you need it for heading then,

TABLE FILE XYZ
PRINT ..
HEADING CENTER
"<16>*************"
"<16>* REPORT TITLE *"
"<16>*************"

I guess this would work.

Hi,
There is some default space(1line or 2 line) between the Heading and the Title part.I want to remove those spaces.
I tried with
type=heading,bottomgap=0,$
type=title,topgap=0,$
But still unable to eliminate those spaces.

Actually I want to elongate the grid of TITLE to few lines of the HEADING.Can i do that....

My diagram in the last posting explains the same....
