Set Report

A Set Report can be produced for every set type (including SR8 index sets) for which statistics have been accumulated.

Set statistics are accumulated for a set type when all owner records in the set type reside in an area swept for statistical accumulation and all member records in the set type reside either in an area swept or in an area that is accessible.

An accessible area is an area that you have not excluded by using the NOMEMBERSET option in an AREA parameter statement when processing a database for statistical accumulation.

If a member record in any set occurrence in a set type resides in an inaccessible area (excluded by using the NOMEMBERSET option), no statistics for the entire set type are accumulated. Consequently, a Set Report for such a set type is not available. In addition, a Set Report for a set type excluded from processing by a SET parameter statement cannot be produced. See Chapter 3, "Parameters".

A Set Report is divided into four sections--the Set Statistics Section, the Distribution Section, Histogram Section and the Multi-Member Set Analysis Section.

Set Report fields are shown in the following screen displays. Following are descriptions of two report identification fields plus fields used in the Set Statistics, Distribution, Histogram, and Multi-Member Set Analysis Sections of the Set Report. The item numbers preceding each field name and description correspond with those in the referenced exhibits.
