The TABULAR command is used to specify that a tabular report is to be constructed. Tabular reports consist of multiple columns, and show how multiple sets of encyclopedia entries correspond to each other.
The structure of this statement is:
TABULAR value { level-command-statement level-command-statement level-command-statement }
The TABULAR command statement must conform to the following rules:
▪TABULAR, value (1), brackets (BEGIN and END or { and }), and level-command-statements must be separated by white space.
Note The value (1) is required for the report to be parsed properly.
▪In multi-level reports, the order of the JOIN commands and level-command-statements must provide a clear path through the Entity and Relation Tables (see Relations between objects).
