I'm trying to SUM the models that go with a country but the model list keeps growing. Any ideas?

-********************
DEFINE FILE CAR
MDLS/A600= IF MDLS EQ '' THEN MODEL
ELSE SUBSTR(500, MDLS, 1, 500, 500, 'A500') || '-' || MODEL;
END

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM MDLS
BY COUNTRY
END
-***************
need output:
ENGLAND V12XKE AUTO-XJ12L AUTO-INTERCEPTOR III-TR7
FRANCE 504 4 DOOR
ITALY 2000 4 DOOR BERLINA-2000 GT VELOCE-2000 SPIDER VELOCE-DORA 2 DOOR
JAPAN B210 2 DOOR AUTO-COROLLA 4 DOOR DIX AUTO
W GERMANY 100 LS 2 DOOR AUTO-2002 2 DOOR-2002 2 DOOR AUTO-3.0 SI 4 DOOR-3.0 SI 4 DOOR AUTO-530I 4 DOOR-530I 4 DOOR AUTO

Small change to your code:
DEFINE FILE CAR MODELS/A600 = 
IF COUNTRY EQ LAST COUNTRY THEN SUBSTR(600, MODELS, 1, 550, 550, 'A550') || '-' || MODEL ELSE MODEL;
END

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM 
MODELS
BY COUNTRY
END

But make sure that your file is sorted by COUNTRY...
FOCUS files like CAR behave nicely, but if you have a sequential file or an SQL table, there might be some surprises!
