SOLVED: presenting a lot of data

I have an app where the user selects from a list. The data I can display once the user has selected could be quite a lot, so I would rather break it up into meaningful groups. Each selection from the list will have the same groups of data. I'm wondering how people would expect to access the data? I was thinking of using tabs to break up the data, but anyone got other ideas?

I would use a list with section headers and then display the data that belongs to each section(group), you could still have a seach bar to allow for filtering the data etc. For me I think it would be confusing using tabs. Unless I'm not understanding something important about your app which is entirely possible.

Thanks Mark, yes I think you are right, after more thinking and playing around, I don't think tabs are the right way of doing it.
