I would like to use HEADALIGN=INTERNAL in the HEADING for an EXL2K report, but it doesn't work.

I want COUNTRY & MODEL and CAR & BODYTYPE to line up.

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
SALES AS 'Sales'
WHEELBASE AS 'Wheelbase'
BY COUNTRY NOPRINT
BY CAR NOPRINT
BY MODEL NOPRINT
BY BODYTYPE NOPRINT
ON BODYTYPE PAGE-BREAK
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K

HEADING
"Country: <COUNTRY Car: <CAR"
"Model: <MODEL Body Type: <BODYTYPE"
" "

ON TABLE SET PAGE NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET STYLESHEET *
TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF, FONT='ARIAL', SIZE=8, $
TYPE=HEADING, HEADALIGN=INTERNAL, $
TYPE=HEADING, OBJECT=TEXT, STYLE=BOLD, $
TYPE=HEADING, OBJECT=FIELD, COLOR=NAVY, $
END

This works for HTML, but not for EXL2K. The documentation suggests it should work for both.

Francis,

If you use HEADALIGN=BODY does that work?

Yes, HEADALIGN=BODY does work, but I don't really want to use HEADALIGN=BODY. The documentation suggests that HEADALIGN=INTERNAL shoukld work, though I don't know how it would...

Francis,

I had the same problem and HEADALIGN=BODY worked for me. I could not get HEADALIGN=INTERNAL to work either.
