BLOCKHEADERS

Displays all members that apply to a column as the column heading, in the style used by asymmetric reports.

Note:

This is the only format that can be used with asymmetric reports. Pyramid headers are the default for symmetric reports.

Syntax

{ BLOCKHEADERS }

Notes

• BLOCKHEADERS is a setting command.

• BLOCKHEADERS can be useful when columns are reordered and previously symmetric upper-tier column headers no longer align properly.

• BLOCKHEADERS ensures right-justified alignment of all columns.

Example

The following example is based on Sample Basic.

<PAGE Measures)
Sales
{WIDTH 7}
{BLOCKHEADERS}
<SYM 
     <COLUMN (Scenario, Year, Market)
     Actual Budget
     Jan Feb
     East West
<ROW (Market)
<IDESCENDANTS "400"
     !
