Good point! That's the danger of doing these things in your head! I may be busy at work today, if not I'll try with your data. Otherwise, see if this works:



«if CATEGORY <> prev CATEGORY»«CATEGORY»

«endif»«if (CITY <> prev CITY) or (CATEGORY <> prev CATEGORY)»«CITY» («CODE»)

«endif»«COMPANY»(tab)«TEL»

«ADDRESS»





I've added an extra 'OR' condition so that when we start a new category the city name should go in regardless of the previous city.



I love XData, and have written some horribly complex prototypes! It's amazing what it can do but the logic can get scary, and sometimes I go back to it and have no idea what I've done! Commenting and laying it out clearly, more like a program, can help. I often put the purely XData bits in a different colour to the bits which will actually print. (XData is the Quark version, but it is identical to InData, and you can actually copy them over, with a bit of re-formatting!).
