Sure that can be done...

One way to do it is: Start off with / DEFINE a primary sort field and DEFINE those COLx fields into "buckets". Then sort BY your promary sort fields NOPRINTed.

Can you create an expample, and post the code) of what you want using the CAR or EMPLOYEE files? That would be most helpful to us all and allow us to help you even better then this...

Here is an example of what I need:

Before change:

COUNTRY.....MAKER......MODEL
Japan..........Toyota.....Corolla
Germany.....BMW........300i


After change: (producing one report)

COUNTRY.....MAKER
Japan..........Toyota
Germany.....BMW

COUNTRY.....MODEL
Japan..........Corolla
Germany.....300i

The question can I produce this kind of split in one report?

Here's one way...

SET HOLDLIST=PRINTONLY
SET ASNAMES=ON
SET BYDISPLAY=ON
SET PAGE=NOLEAD

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT CAR/A24 AS 'COL1'
COMPUTE SORT1/A5 = 'MAKER';
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE HOLD AS H001
END

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT MODEL AS 'COL1'
COMPUTE SORT1/A5 = 'MODEL';
BY COUNTRY
ON TABLE HOLD AS H002
END

TABLE FILE H001
PRINT
COL1 AS ''
BY SORT1 NOPRINT
BY COUNTRY AS ''

ON SORT1 SUBHEAD
"COUNTRY <SORT1"
ON SORT1 SUBFOOT
" "
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=SUBHEAD, HEADALIGN=BODY, STYLE=BOLD, $
ENDSTYLE
MORE
FILE H002
END
