OK.
Using FOCUS only:
1. First create the synonyms (using web console), or:

CREATE SYNONYM TABLE1 FOR TABLE1 DBMS SQLORA
END
CREATE SYNONYM TABLE2 FOR TABLE2 DBMS SQLORA
END[/code]and, creating the report:

JOIN CLEAR *
-*
JOIN STUDENT AND GROUP_ID IN TABLE1
TO STUDENT AND GROUP_ID IN TABLE2 AS J1
END
-RUN
DEFINE FILE TABLE1
NUMBER/A8 = IF GROUP_ID EQ '1' THEN MOBILE_NO ELSE PHONE_NO;
END
TABLE FILE TABLE1
PRINT NUMBER
-* ...
TABLE2.OTHERCOLUMN
-* ...
BY STUDENT
BY GROUP_ID
END
