I posted this another topic that was already closed. Wasn't sure if anyone was seeing it I apologize if its double posted now.

I can across this feature which I love. However, I was wondering if anyone can tell me if you can have a combination of above and below. I would like my subtotals below but I want my grand total above. I've tried
On "BY FIELD" SET SUBTOTAL BELOW
ON TABLE SET TOTAL-COLUMN ABOVE
with "By Field" being a sorted field in procedure.

I'm a missing something or it not possible to combine the two in one procedure?

Considering the SUBTOTALS ABOVE is a set for the entire report I would not expect that it would be possible to set it per column.

One way you could get a grand total above is to calculate it yourself and then show it as a heading or subhead. Here is an example how you could do either. The styling is to make the subhead look like a normal subtotal line and may need to change based on how many BY fields and/or if it messes with any other styling.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
DEALER_COST AS 'GRAND_DEALER_COST'
RETAIL_COST AS 'GRAND_RETAIL_COST'
SUM
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
ON TABLE SET ASNAMES ON
ON TABLE HOLD AS HOLD_CAR
END

DEFINE FILE HOLD_CAR
-* Just so the grand total line does not show up more than once
GRAND_TOTAL_HEADING/A1='';
END
TABLE FILE HOLD_CAR
PRINT
DEALER_COST
RETAIL_COST
BY GRAND_TOTAL_HEADING NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
HEADING
"Grandtotals:"
"  Dealer Cost=<GRAND_DEALER_COST"
"  Retail Cost=<GRAND_RETAIL_COST"
ON GRAND_TOTAL_HEADING SUBHEAD
"TOTAL<GRAND_DEALER_COST<GRAND_RETAIL_COST"
ON COUNTRY SUBTOTAL
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=SUBHEAD,HEADALIGN=BODY,$
TYPE=SUBHEAD,LINE=1,ITEM=1,COLSPAN=2,JUSTIFY=LEFT,$
TYPE=SUBHEAD,LINE=1,JUSTIFY=RIGHT,$
ENDSTYLE
END

Sorry for the delayed response. This was very helpful and I did use this technique but had to do some other fancy stuff because of the complexity of my report. But this point me well on my way.
