AM trying to think of the best way to do this. The file has the date but
as sep. yy mm dd fields.

I want to have a total break by date. That is working. But I want the date
itself to appear in the total break description. Do you have to combine
them as one field ?

I don't know about "have to" but that's how we do it.  I often build two
fields, since our users like MDY dates, and they don't sort well.

yy * 10000 + mm * 100 + dd
mm * 10000 + dd * 100 + yy

Then if it's a printed report, I use an edit word '  /  /  ' to make it
look good for the user.
