blanc line in subfoot
To make a report better readable I would like to add a blanc line under the subtotal ONLY when there is a subtotal.
I tried something like

ON CLTNR_REF SUBTOTAL MULTILINES AS 'subtotaal'
ON CLTNR_REF SUBFOOT
" "  
WHEN &LINES GT 1;

But this won't work....
Suggestions?

Hello Frank,

MULTILINES works with most ON operations.
Try the following:


ON CLTNR_REF SUBTOTAL MULTILINES AS 'subtotal'
ON CLTNR_REF SUBFOOT MULTILINES
" "

ON COUNTRY SUBFOOT

WHEN C1 GT 1
END[/CODE]In my example, see FRANCE - no blank line. But, in my opinion, this doesn't make the report easier to read...

Thanks Danny

that is great....

thanks Francis....you are right, it remains unreadable and makes it in fact even more confusing....
I have got questions from the end users and thought this would help...It does not.

Look for "Creating a Sort Heading or Footing" in the documentation. No MULTILINES for SUBHEAD - probably because FOCUS doesn't know how many lines yet when creating the SUBHEAD.

Frank and Francis,

Try this:
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SALES
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
ON COUNTRY SUBTOTAL MULTILINES
ON COUNTRY SUBFOOT MULTILINES
" "
END

See what happens after FRANCE

So if there are no Sales...it does nothing..interesting.

Prarie,

I think you will find that the reason is no multiline break occurs for FRANCE, not the fact there are no sales.

Correct Tony.

Just add in RCOST and DCOST and the results will be the same.
