Hi Spencer and Mike
Sorry for not giving you the details of my output. Im looking to display the title for every new country. So, the html output will look like this: USA Group Name id AAA Adel 12345 AAA Barry 12346 AAA Carl 12347 BBB Dave 12345 BBB Ethel 12346 BBB Fred 12347 EUR Group Name id CCC George 24567 CCC Harold 23458 CCC Jennifer 23459 Hope this helps, thanks again!
