[SOLVED] Limiting Columns Displayed in ACROSS Command

I'm trying to create a simple report with yield curves shown in each column. I'd like to limit the report to the five most recent yield curve dates in my source file. When I try to limit the number of columns shown in the ACROSS command, WebFocus gives me a FOC 1974 warning saying that it cannot process the limit in the ACROSS command. Any ideas for a workaround?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Here is the code:
DEFINE FILE VOYA_PAR
MONTH/I4 = DATEDIF(ASOF_DATE, DATE, 'M');
END
TABLE FILE VOYA_PAR
SUM VOYA_PAR.VOYA_PAR.USD_FITTED/D8.6
BY LOWEST MONTH
ACROSS HIGHEST 5 VOYA_PAR.VOYA_PAR.ASOF_DATE
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET ASNAMES ON
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
$
ENDSTYLE
END

Do it in two passes. Get your Data by Highest 5 and hold it in a file. Then do the across with the hold file.

Prarie,
Thanks very much for the suggestion.


Here's the code that ended up working:
DEFINE FILE VOYA_PAR
MONTH/I4 = DATEDIF(ASOF_DATE, DATE, 'M');
END
TABLE FILE VOYA_PAR
SUM VOYA_PAR.VOYA_PAR.USD_FITTED
BY HIGHEST 5 ASOF_DATE
BY LOWEST MONTH
ON TABLE HOLD AS VOYA_PARX
END
TABLE FILE VOYA_PARX
SUM USD_FITTED/D8.6
BY LOWEST MONTH
ACROSS HIGHEST ASOF_DATE
ON TABLE SET HOLDLIST PRINTONLY
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET ASNAMES ON
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
$
ENDSTYLE
END
