Michael, Look at the BEFORE GROUP clause in the ACE programs. You will need a ORDER BY T1.f1, T1.f2 statement in your SELECT clause. Then in the FORMAT section add a BEFORE GROUP statement to print out the header info in T1 and a BEFORE GROUP statement to print out T2. Then in your EVERY ROW section print T3.
