Please update your signature via the link above.

This is not tested, BTW...

  
SET ASNAMES = ON
-SET &CNTR = 3;
-REPEAT GET_DATA 5 TIMES
TABLE FILE SRTST0&CNTR
PRINT 
   TypeLbl&CNTR AS 'TYPE_LBL'
   DivLbl&CNTR  AS 'DIV_LBL'
   Sales&CNTR   AS 'SALES'
BY JoinLbl0&CNTR AS 'KEY_COL'
BY Year&CNTR     AS 'YEAR'
  ON TABLE HOLD AS HOLD&CNTR
END
-RUN
-SET &CNTR = &CNTR + 1;
-IF &CNTR GT 7 GOTO DONE;
-GET_DATA
-DONE
TABLE FILE HOLD3
PRINT
  TYPE_LBL
  DIV_LBL
  SALES
 BY KEY_COL
 BY YEAR
   ON TABLE HOLD AS FINAL
MORE
FILE HOLD4
MORE 
FILE HOLD5
MORE
FILE HOLD6
MORE
FILE HOLD7
END
-RUN
TABLE FILE FINAL
PRINT
  TYPE_LBL
  DIV_LBL
  SALES
 BY KEY_COL
 BY YEAR

Here's another idea. Since the formats for the four files are the same, use a single master and the USE statement to 'concatenate' the four FOCUS files to that master.

Ginny, I would have suggested that if all the column names were the same.

If programmers create FOCUS DB's like above, instead of creating them with the same column names and different file names, then, the code above, or something similar, is my thought.

Of course, creating "another" MFD with common names will work also.

Another option would be to define the column names the same, then just do TABLE MORE.
