Jaco,

Sorry if this solution doesn't do anything tricky (other than working) so no new
technical skills being taught.

Have the description and three output fields in your subfile.  Also have 6 
hidden
fields in the subfile which contain the 6 columns of data you want to show.

F7=z-add first three hidden fields into the output fields then display subfile
F8=z-add last three hidden fields into the output fields then display subfile
