Syntax: How to Control Column Title Underlining Using a StyleSheet Attribute

TYPE={REPORT|TITLE}, TITLELINE =  (ON|OFF|SKIP)

where:

ON
Underlines column titles. ON is the default value.
OFF
Replaces the underline with a blank line.
SKIP
Omits both the underline and the line on which the underline would have displayed.

Example: Controlling Column Title Underlining Using a StyleSheet Attribute

The following request has a BY and an ACROSS field.

TABLE FILE GGSALES
SUM UNITS BY PRODUCT
ACROSS REGION
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM OFF
ON TABLE HOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, TITLELINE=ON, GRID=OFF, FONT=ARIAL,$
ENDSTYLE
END

With the default value (ON) for TITLELINE, the column titles are underlined.

With TITLELINE=OFF, the column titles are not underlined, but the blank line where the underlines would have been is still there.

With TITLELINE=SKIP, both the underlines and the blank line are removed.
