RPG or SQL?

HI Perhaps I wasn't clear last time I was talking about SQL.
In RPG I would do a Control Break on Acct & Model, then it would show
me as many fields as needed.
In SQL I do this:
SELECT DISTINCT ACCT, mod FROM *libl/mdpwrk WHERE
acct > 12806 ORDER BY ACCT, MOD.

Because there are many acct/mod records but we are interested in only the
one occurance.

But we also want to see other information such as PO # to help
locate the records.

W/ the SQL it seems that I can only do a 'control break' on the exact
fields that will make up the output. in this case, it seems as I need to
write an RPG program for the Control Break feature?
