Try a SUBFOOT. You may have to create asort field for each row, but easily doable.

Enigma006,

Can you please post your code. I don't see why you can't do this.

As Waz suggests, SUBFOOT should do the trick:

TABLE FILE CAR
 SUM COUNTRY 
     CAR
 BY COUNTRY NOPRINT
 BY CAR     NOPRINT
 ON CAR SUBFOOT
  "<STANDARD"
  " "
END

Thanks Waz and Dan. I already tried SUBFOOT.
I have a subtotal in this report and subtotal comes after subfoot separating it from the record.

Here is the example
  
TABLE FILE CAR
 SUM COUNTRY 
     CAR
	 SALES
 BY COUNTRY NOPRINT
 BY CAR     NOPRINT
 ON CAR SUBFOOT
  "<STANDARD"
  " "
ON COUNTRY SUBTOTAL AS 'Total for'
END


In the Output, I am trying to get "RETRACTABLE HEADLIGHTS" (related to car Triumph) above subtotal for England

Well, you may then need to get rid of the SUBTOTAL and make your own totals in the second line of the SUBFOOT.
I know there is a bit of more work involved in the STYLE section and you will lose some features (such as intra-borders in your SUBFOOT line) but at least Data 6 will show up above the totals ....

TABLE FILE CAR
 SUM COUNTRY 
     CAR
	 SALES
 BY COUNTRY NOPRINT
 BY CAR     NOPRINT
 ON CAR SUBFOOT
  "<STANDARD"
  "Total for <COUNTRY<+0><ST.SALES"
END
