I think I follow your logic.  So, I add another field in the products 
database called pr_group.  I set this to "1" for all the items I want to 
group together.  So far so good.  Now how do I combine the quantities of 
all the items ordered with a "1" in the pr_group field, and then fetch 
the quantity price?  I assume this would take some sort of perl?  If 
anyone could offer an example, I'd be mighty grateful.  

Currently, this is in my catalog.cfg:
PriceField     price

CommonAdjust   pricing:price_group,q10,q25,q50,q100: ;:price ;$
AutoModifier   pricing:price_group
AutoModifier   products:gift_cert

UserDB         default    scratch    dealer

Autoload <<EOR
[perl]
            $Config->{PriceField} = 'no_price';
[/perl]
EOR                    

Thanks.

Bob
