report footing
Is there any way to have the report footing immediately follow the page footing on the same page rather than always having the report footing begin on a new page?

I'm a bit confused. What do you mean by Report footing versus page footing?

I have a field that I want to put into the report footing (as opposed to the page footing) since I only want it to appear one time at the end of the report, BUT I want it to follow the data portion of the report (there isn't any page footing) immediately instead of on a new page.

I was able to reproduce your problem by using both a page footing (at the very bottom of each page) and then adding a report footing which shows up on the next page (yuck). You mentioned that there is no page footing in your report so I took that out and the report footing works as you wanted. Are you sure there is no page footing code in your fex somewhere? Even a blank footing line will cause the report footing to go to the next page.

Show your pagenumber information in FOOTING and show the report parameter information in TABLE SUBFOOT.

Then use PRINTPLUS=ON

ex:
SET PRINTPLUS=ON

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT CAR MODEL
BY COUNTRY
FOOTING
"Page ON TABLE SUBFOOT
"END OF REPORT"
END

Hope this helps

Thanks Kamesh,

SET PRINTPLUS=ON

is the secret.
Page footings and Report footings together work now.

Bethany, over to you ...
