fund_code org_code

01 100
200
300

02 150
250

03 610
620

Before the SELECT add this line:

BREAK ON fund_code skip 1

Then, execute as script (F5) in Toad.

Google sqlplus specifically the break command.

Bella,

If you don't want to use the SQL*Plus Break command you can do this with
the Analytic function LED.

CREATE TABLE whatever_table
( fund_code VARCHAR2(2),
org_code VARCHAR2(10));

INSERT INTO whatever_table VALUES ('01','100');
INSERT INTO whatever_table VALUES ('01','200');
INSERT INTO whatever_table VALUES ('01','300');
INSERT INTO whatever_table VALUES ('02','150');
INSERT INTO whatever_table VALUES ('02','250');
INSERT INTO whatever_table VALUES ('03','610');
INSERT INTO whatever_table VALUES ('03','620');

COMMIT;

SELECT CASE
WHEN LAG(fund_code,1,'-1')
OVER (ORDER BY fund_code,org_code) != fund_code
THEN
fund_code
ELSE
NULL
END AS fund_code,
org_code
FROM whatever_table;

Chris,

Unfortunately, I can not use break because I need to use this SQL later in PL/SQL.
Thanks,
bella

But if you are using it in PL/SQL then you are presumably outputting the results of a cursor via program control and thus just blank out values as and when needed.
