I never thought about doing a line break character. Funny, I have used that same logic when coding in vbscript. The idea of the grouping I thought about, I just had the feeling it would um... klunky??? Use up alot of form retail space? I thought about just using two physical rows for every line of detail history, with a blank row between them. Still kicking that around in the back of my head. Chuckle, to make this even more complicated. I plan on allowing them to select what they wish to see in the detail history. So, this will be a dynamic build of the view with regard to what is shown and what isn't. I think I'm going to just play with the different ways, to see what appears to work best. Thank you for your feed back, it gives me more to think about. And try to see what looks the best. Dan
