QUIZ: COUNT report-item and SUBFILES

[John Webster]

COUNT is a reserved word, so when you came to access the subfile, how could PH
recognise "COUNT" as a field name?

The common way round this is
>define KOUNT = 1
>report .... KOUNT subtotal

>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,
