Subject:      ACROSS INDEX USING ...

I am trying to generate a report using LIST BY month ACROSS INDEX USING
grp(item) but the grp will overflow pass the width of 133 boundary
and wrapped to the next page.
Example :

month : Sep95
         grp1    grp2    grp3    grp4   grp5 ... grp9
text1      x       x       x       x      x        x
text2      x       x       x       x      x        x
  .
  .
  .
textn      x       x       x       x      x        x

grp10   grp11 ...  grp18
  x       x          x
  x       x          x
  .
  .
  .
  x       x          x

month : Aug95
         grp1    grp2    grp3    grp4   grp5 ... grp9
text1      x       x       x       x      x        x
text2      x       x       x       x      x        x
  .
  .
  .
textn      x       x       x       x      x        x

grp10   grp11 ...  grp18
  x       x          x
  x       x          x
  .
  .
  .
  x       x          x

My question is can I generate a report and splitting the report into
9 grp each so that it will look something like this :

month : Sep95
         grp1    grp2    grp3    grp4   grp5 ... grp9
text1      x       x       x       x      x        x
text2      x       x       x       x      x        x
  .
  .
  .
textn      x       x       x       x      x        x

         grp10   grp11   grp12   grp13  grp14... grp18
text1      x       x       x       x      x        x
text2      x       x       x       x      x        x
  .
  .
  .
textn      x       x       x       x      x        x

month : Aug95
         grp1    grp2    grp3    grp4   grp5 ... grp9
text1      x       x       x       x      x        x
text2      x       x       x       x      x        x
  .
  .
  .
textn      x       x       x       x      x        x

         grp10   grp11   grp12   grp13  grp14... grp18
text1      x       x       x       x      x        x
text2      x       x       x       x      x        x
  .
  .
  .
textn      x       x       x       x      x        x

Is there any NOMAD command which I can use to split the ACROSS INDEX
USING item so that it will print across continuously in the report or
are there any other alternatives?
Thanks.
