Still trying this out, but it is not displaying the items under the
categories properly, they are either 'stepped,' or there are gaps in
the list rows, etc. etc., and the matrix doesn't seem to have a way of
'wrapping' the columns around, I don't want one giant
spreadsheet-looking thing, I would like a four-column sort of thing.
Thank you, Tom
P.S. I'm beginning to think it's impossible.

Have you looked at the Matrix control yet, compared to Table? To me it looks
like you should use a matrix, with coloum groups set to Category. You might
have to tweak your data set a bit, to get both column groups and row groups,
but matrix is still the best way to go.
