I'm not finding a way to put a compute into the grand total line.

Is there any way to do this? I need to compute based on the totals of two columns.

this might be a solution

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM 
     SALES
     DEALER_COST/D10.2
     COMPUTE TEST/D12.2 = DEALER_COST / SALES; NOPRINT
BY DUMMY
BY COUNTRY
     
ON DUMMY RECOMPUTE AS '*TOTAL'
ON DUMMY SUBFOOT
"Dealercost per sales (dealercost/sales): <ST.TEST"
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM OFF 
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     UNITS=IN,
     SQUEEZE=ON,
     ORIENTATION=PORTRAIT,
$
TYPE=REPORT,
     GRID=OFF,
     FONT='TIMES NEW ROMAN',
     SIZE=10,
     COLOR='BLACK',
     BACKCOLOR='NONE',
     STYLE=NORMAL,
$
TYPE=SUBFOOT,
     BY=1,
     LINE=1,
     OBJECT=FIELD,
     ITEM=1,
     POSITION='N4',
$
ENDSTYLE
END


This in PDF, in HTML you should use the grid to position that field.

Thanks Frank!

I'm a little confused on what this means...

Where can I find information on positioning the field in a grid?

It's all in the manual, but a little course might help too.

If you put some text in the foot or header box, you can click right with the mouse.

(if you use the GUI)

by grid, I was thinking it was something related to CSS, so it was over my head.

I understand the 'grid' that you mentioned now in the GUI.

It only takes about a dozen tries to get things to line up correctly, totals under data that is, so I've got my work cut out for me.

Thanks!
