QUIZ: COUNT report-item and SUBFILES

[Oran Shapitka]

I believe it is because count is a reserve red word and the subfile is
trying to assign an element name but can't use count.  The work around is to
define a field called KOUNT with a value of 1, the use the Subtotal option
to duplicate the count function.

Subject: QUIZ: COUNT report-item and SUBFILES


Hi everyone,

A questions for the list that may also fit into the "EASY" category: Why is
the "count" report-item excluded when reporting to a subfile in QUIZ.

I have the following simple report statement:

REPORT CAT-NO REPORT-DATE REPORT-BY COUNT

To the screen or printer, there is no problem -- I see all four columns,
and my counter fuctions as I want.  But when I set a subfile...

SET SUBFILE NAME MYREPORTLIST

...then the subfile only includes the first three columns.  Why does this
happen? Any suggestions on how to write COUNT to the subfile (or how to
produce an equivalent end result)?

Thanks,
BRIAN.
