Discussion

Use this property to show subtotals for each outer level summary. When this property is set to True, the report inserts automatic subtotals derived from details in the crosstab rows and columns. In a crosstab with a long list of data, you can use the summary data to outline the information in the report. Set this property to true for nested crosstabs so that the nested level summary is visible.

The ShowSummaryRow or the ShowSummaryColumn and the ShowSummaryBreakdown properties must both be set to True to see the details for each outer level summary row or column. If the ShowSummaryRow or ShowSummaryColumn property is set to True, but the ShowSummaryBreakdown is set to False, only a single row or column appears for each summary. If the ShowSummaryRow or ShowSummaryColumn property is set to False, but the ShowSummaryBreakdown is set to True, no summary rows or columns appear.

Default: True

Example

This example sets the ShowSummaryBreakdown property to false so that the crosstab hides the subtotal summary for the nested categories.

Sub Main()
   Dim objCubeCategories As Object
   Dim objPPRep As Object
   Dim objGraph As Object
   Const level_0 = 0
   Const level_1 = 1
   Const add_to_current = 0
   Const add_to_all = 1
   Const as_parent = 0
   Const as_child = 1
   Set objPPRep = CreateObject("CognosPowerPlay.Report")
   objPPRep.New "D:\Cubes and Reports\Great Outdoors.mdc",
-1
   objPPRep.ExplorerMode = True
   objPPRep.Visible = True
   Set objCubeCategories = objPPRep.CategoryList()
   objCubeCategories.Add level_1, "Locations" 
   objPPRep.Rows.AddLevel objCubeCategories, level_0,
_
         add_to_all, as_child
   Set objGraph = objPPRep.Graphs.Item(1)
   objGraph.SetType 0
   objPPRep.Graphs.ShowSummaryRow = True
   objPPRep.Graphs(1).ShowSummaryBreakdown = False
   Set objCubeCategories = Nothing
