Hi James,
You may want to use the ORDER status instead of GROUP on the
SUBNO variable. This would make a break on the report for each value
of the SUBNO variable. But if you want to use the GROUP to calculate
a statistic (wich is the intended use) you cannot have DISPLAY variable
since you're going to show statistics on the line (SUM,MEAN,N,...);
you need numeric variables with the ANALYSIS or COMPUTED status ...
See PROC REPORT guide for details...
Regards,
Bernard Tremblay
