Well, not easy in a programming language - however, certainly an option.  I
was hoping that there would be some kind of break in sequence aggregation
available (or a trick) in Sqlite. My problem I suspect is not so uncommon. I
know that I can do this in INFO (an outdated database of ArcInfo) and I
believe in SqlPlus (oracle?).
Thanks again for the pointers.
