Dear SAS-L,

   I have a set of 100 people each with an attribute called network.  The
distribution of these people is

Network  Count
=======  =====
     01     57
     02     14
     03     29

   I'd like to break these people into groups of no more than twenty, but
have each group start on a new network boundary.  For example,

Network  Group  Count
=======  =====  =====
     01      1     20
     01      2     20
     01      3     17
     02      4     14
     03      5     20
     03      6      9

   I though this was easy until I tried to show someone else how to do this.
Can one of you experts take me to school?  TIA - Jack
