Hi Michael,
As you know, there is no row# limit about your group but
tables and selects have column# limit.

Anyway,
You can turn your rows 90 degree with some ways if u sure about
group limit..

Select
(select First 1 ty,sum(amount) from test group by ty) as GROUPSUM1,
(select First 1 skip 1 ty,sum(amount) from test group by ty) as
GROUPSUM2,
from rdb$database

( i didn't test it but worked theorically in my untheareded single
proccessed brain ;) )

or you can write a selectable stored procedure and suspend
rows as columns..

Regards,

-Ali
