No. TIB_Grid displays a set with a known number of output fields. A
selectable SP must also output a set of known structure. You could devise
a SP that would output a pivot set with a known maximum number of columns,
and have it output nulls for those groupings with fewer than the maximum
number of groups (as your example implies). Then, IB_Grid could handle the
set.

IB/FB don't support pivot sets "out-of-the-box" and IBO doesn't have any
controls that would know what to do with them for searching or ordering. I
don't know of any mechanism whereby you could get a pivot set with a
variable number of columns.

The better way to do this would be with a master-detail structure, using
multiple sets, so that the interface could respond to changes hierarchically.
