Description
The .footer statement starts the block of text formatting statements that define the action to be taken at the end of a break in the report.
If you specify a variable for columnname, Report-Writer evaluates the variable during the loading of the report specification, before retrieving any data.
Report-Writer considers all statements between one .footer statement and any subsequent .header, .footer, or .detail statement to be part of the first footer action.
Note:  When using a variable for columnname, specify the same variable identically in corresponding .break, .sort, and .header statements.
