I have a cross report for country. How can I hide the column for JAPAN without losing my total.

here is the sample using a CAR file
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
CAR.BODY.SALES
BY CAR.COMP.CAR
BY CAR.CARREC.MODEL
ACROSS LOWEST CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY ACROSS-TOTAL
ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL'
END

What should Total be if your report hides JAPAN?

I assume you don't like the total when you have:
WHERE COUNTRY NE 'JAPAN';

There's a way to specify which values are included in the report, but I think it takes the non-selected columns out of the totals as well.

Multi-part report where the second captures the total numbers and presents them separately?

John,

How do specific which columns are included in the report?
If I can hide what I don't need. Then, I can do a manual define to calculate the totals.

thanks,

Vera

It's in the Help files for ACROSS COLUMNS AND as this --

TABLE FILE EMPLOYEE
SUM CURR_SAL
ACROSS BANK_NAME COLUMNS 'BEST BANK' AND STATE
AND ASSOCIATED AND 'BANK ASSOCIATION'
END

Sort of a bugger to find unless you know it's there.

using column notation {eg Cn, also Pn, )
SET ASNAMES = ON
TABLE FILE IBISAMP/CAR
SUM SALES AS TOTSALES 
  
SUM SALES   BY COUNTRY 
ON TABLE HOLD
END
 TABLE FILE HOLD PRINT *
END
TABLE FILE HOLD SUM TOTSALES NOPRINT SALES ACROSS COUNTRY AND COMPUTE TOTAL=C1;
IF COUNTRY NE 'FRANCE'
END

where C1 is the first column after the first verb, and you have NOPRINTed that column, but the internal matrix still can use it just fine
