Firehose mode: border

Hi,
I'm trying to achieve the following in a table. Have border after/before the
grouping changes to the next value.
Nov 1 v1 v2 v3 v4
v1 v2 v3 v4
_____________________
Nov 3 v1 v2 v3 v4
_____________________
Is there an easy way to do this?Yes. Add either a top or bottom border to group footer row in the table. The
report at end of this posting demonstrates how to accomplish this task.

Hi All
I am trying to ouput the results from my query in the form of XML. The query
is like this:
SELECT a, b, COUNT(S.c ) AS x
FROM s
GROUP BY a,b
ORDER BY a,b
FOR XML AUTO, ELEMENTS
If run this, i get an error like this:
Server: Msg 6821, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
GROUP BY and aggregate functions are currently not supported with FOR XML
AUTO.
Is there any way i can do this? Thank you all in advance.MittyKom,
Try:
SELECT * FROM (SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT a, b, COUNT(c) AS x
FROM s
GROUP BY a,b
ORDER BY a,b ) AS Y
FOR XML AUTO, ELEMENTS
