I don't really know how to explain this, but I am still really struggling
with writing the looping logic for my app.

My app is basically going to run through a CSV file, produce a query object,
parse this query object and build arrays or structures that represent a
prescription. Each prescription can have a maximum of 3 drugs on it, hence
the complex looping requirements.

The query object is about 200 rows long.

Each row holds information relating to the dispensing of a drug. Patient
name / details, Doctor name, drug name / details etc etc. The only unique
identifier for each patient is a name medicare number combination.

I have to write a loop that starts with the first row of the query object,
gets the name and medicare number, and finds all the othe occurances of that
patient / medicare combo for that date of drug dispense and get the info
into a structure or array, or anything to start separating out the actual
prescriptions.

The hard part is:

            Each structure / array of drugs making up a script can only have
3 drugs on it, so I my patient has 5 drugs prescribed on that day I need 2
structures, one with 3 drugs on it, the other with 2.

Can someone help me with the looping constructs ???
