Something else you might want to consider is using the PRINT AT option
to
'blank out' your first control break values. You would need to define a
control
break which doesn't change for the entire report and then print blank
items on
top of your existing items at that control break. Something like the
following
might suffice:

ACCESS files

DEFINE MY-BREAK = 1

SORT ON MY-BREAK  &
           ON existing-control-break

HEADING AT existing-control-break  &
                    tab 10 item-of-file  &
                    tab 10 "               " PRINT AT MY-BREAK &; <--
blanks at
least as big

;     as previous item
                    tab 25 item2-of-file &
                    tab 25 "     " PRINT AT MY-BREAK skip 2


Since PRINT AT occurs at the start of the control break this should just

overwrite the first control break. Just to warn you I haven't tested
this out,
but it should work (famous last words).
