Does anyone know if it is possible to display an item on a by field but exclude one of the records in the "ON TABLE SUMMARIZE" Rollup section.

Basically I have Division 1-5 in the Division By field. I want to exclude Division 2 out of the Table Rollup (Summarize section). Any assistance on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

You should be able to apply a WHEN statement to your SUMMARIZE:

ON TABLE SUMMARIZE .....
 WHEN DIVISION NE '2';


EDIT: On second thought, WHEN may only work with ON byfield SUMMARIZE.

You could use a NOPRINT field to carry only the values you want to summarize (that is, when Division is not 2) and display those on a table SUBFOOT instead.

I know, SUBFOOT is not as "nice" as SUMMARIZE and requires more work to style but it may be worth trying.


DEFINE FILE CAR
CONTINENT/A10    = IF COUNTRY EQ 'JAPAN' THEN 'ASIA' ELSE 'EUROPE';
EUROPE_SALES/D12 = IF CONTINENT EQ 'EUROPE' THEN SALES ELSE 0;
END
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM 
    SALES 
    EUROPE_SALES NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
ON TABLE SUBFOOT
"Europe Sales:<+0><TOT.EUROPE_SALES"
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=TABFOOTING, HEADALIGN=BODY, $
TYPE=TABFOOTING, OBJECT=TEXT, ITEM=1, COLSPAN=2, $
END



I hope you have a clear disclaimer message in your report explaining why the detail values won't add up to the "totals" displayed to avoid any business/audit concerns.
