I am writing a report program which will perform a pareto analysis on failure
data.  I am noticing that the report writer program I am using does not handle
this application entirely gracefully.  In essence, I need the group total
before processing the group, and the report writer does not want to give me
the group total until after processing the group :-(

I was wondering if anyone else has created a similar report program.  If so, I
would be interested in comparing notes as to how you did it, what problems you
encountered, etc.

Please reply to the path below, not the path in the header.  Thanks.
