GRIM Summary Report

[DonQuixote]

I must be in a fog but I've forgot how to copy a perfectly good detail report and make it a summary report.  Any ideas?  Thank you in advance.

Did you want to make it a "Totals Only" report?  That prompt is in /RD F6.

You can either change the report to prompt at run time (A), or make a copy of the report and set "Totals Only" to "Y".

Since this is a GRIM process, if you choose prompt at run time, you would have to add a data statement to the original GRIM process to provide the appropriate response when the job is run as a scheduled report.

Yes, that works but it leaves a lot of blank lines between each total.   
Is there a way to eliminate the blank lines?

Answered my own question...
The Break field had a page break that needed to be removed.  (P

thank you

You can also take a look at the post I wrote in 2007 regarding controlling break fields in the Totals Only report.  It's on the "Cool Ideas" page.  Hopefully, you can also use this link.
