Sudheer,

This is the way I code tables. It?s more than you asked for and I hope it does not confuse you to much. The specific question you asked is answered with the ?05 ST-ENTRY? and related ?10? variables. The remaining supporting variables I like to put with the table for easy of understanding. Other variables related to the ?ST-TABLE? structure may need to be defined.

?05-SUB? is the subscript used when accessing the table.
?ST-MAX-NUM-ENTRIES? is used to reference in your code for the maximum number of entries available in the table.
?ST-CURR-NUM-ENTRIES? is contains the number of entries in the table actually used.

Check out the link below on Defining a tables. At the bottom of the link page are examples of 1,2, and 3 dimensional tables.

Defining a Table

From your description in your first post, I don't know how you would like the 2nd dimension defined.

You described a one dimensional table; several variables occurring 20 times. For a 2nd dimension, you'd need to have the set of 20 variables occurring x number of times. Like under 'school of' type. i.e. School of Law, School of Art, School of Science.

Let me know how you want this to structure and we can help you.

sudheer,

I'm not sure how to explain it better than in the link in 'Defining a Table' in my previous post, but I can try. Can you give specific questions about what you did not understand in the link? I know tables can be troublesome for those not familiar with them.
