This is probable not exactly what you want, but it may be a first step towards the ultimate solution for you:
TABLE FILE CAR
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE HOLD
END
-RUN

-REPEAT :LOOP &LINES TIMES;
-READ HOLD NOCLOSE &COU.10.
DEFINE FILE CAR
FOOT_MOD/A26 = '"' | MODEL | '"';
END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT FOOT_MOD
IF COUNTRY EQ '&COU'
ON TABLE HOLD AS INC_MOD FORMAT ALPHA
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT 
     CAR
     BODYTYPE
BY COUNTRY
WHERE COUNTRY EQ '&COU'
ON COUNTRY PAGE-BREAK
HEADING
"My Reports "
FOOTING
-INCLUDE inc_mod.ftm
END

-:LOOP

Hope this helps ...

Maybe something like this:

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
     CAR
     BODYTYPE
COMPUTE DISP_MOD/A150 = IF COUNTRY NE LAST COUNTRY
                        THEN MODEL
                        ELSE SUBSTR(150,(LAST DISP_MOD || (', '|MODEL)),1,150,DISP_MOD;
         NOPRINT 
BY COUNTRY
ON COUNTRY PAGE-BREAK
HEADING
"My Reports "
FOOTING
"  <DISP_MOD "
END



ttfn, kp

Krish,

You said you also needed this for excel. Well, since the idea I gave involves multiple table requests, that's not going to be so very easy. But, if you look at the proces from another angle, it suddenly becomes possible to do this in ultimtelt one request, as per the following example on the car database:
 
TABLE FILE CAR
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE HOLD
END
-RUN

-SET &X = &LINES;
-SET &C = 1;
-REPEAT :LOOP_1 &X TIMES;
-READ HOLD NOCLOSE &COU.&C.10.
DEFINE FILE CAR
FOOT_MOD/A26 = '"' | MODEL | '"';
END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT FOOT_MOD
IF COUNTRY EQ '&COU.&C'
ON TABLE HOLD AS INC_MOD&C FORMAT ALPHA
END
-RUN
-SET &C=&C+1;
-:LOOP_1

-SET &ECHO='ALL';

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT 
     CAR
     BODYTYPE
BY COUNTRY
ON COUNTRY PAGE-BREAK
HEADING
"My Reports "
-SET &C = 1;
-REPEAT :LOOP_2 &X TIMES;
ON COUNTRY SUBFOOT
-INCLUDE inc_mod&C...ftm
WHEN COUNTRY EQ '&COU.&C'
-SET &C=&C+1;
-:LOOP_2
END
-RUN
 

This examples uses the ON .. SUBFOOT WHEN ... which allows it to be one request.

Hope this helps ...
