RE: a need for speed

this is similar to the sql that Rick sent earlier.  It probably would not give 
me the result I wanted.  Below is an example of detail record and what the 
result needs to be:

Detail record 
 601         123       0001     JSN 
 601         123       0002     JSN 
 601         123       0003     JSN 
 601         123       0004       JSN
 601         123       0006     BTD 
 601         123       0010     BTD 
 601         123       0011     JSN   
 601         123       0030     BTD       
 601         123       0044     BTD  
 601         123       0091     JSN 
 601         123       0092     JSN

The result needs to be:      
 601         123       BTD      0006 - 10                    
 601         123       BTD      0030 - 44                    
      
 601         123       JSN      0001 - 04     
 601         123       JSN    0011 - 11 
 601         123       JSN      0091 - 92

Lim,

You could use Query to create the summary.

Order by Area Code, Prefix, Suffix, Terminal.
Break level 1 on Area Code, Prefix, Terminal.
Min & Max on Suffix.
Output to a summary file.

It won't let you output to your own file format.  It will create a break
level indicator field in the output file which you won't want.  You also get
a summary record with min and max on the Suffix over the entire file.  But
it does give you the detail you want.
