Try this for a starting point. Use a control block and scroll bars to maintain position of records displayed in 3 different Master blocks. This is just the briefest of starting points and may become somewhat involved to implement.

Control Block (orientation vertical 3 rows displayed w/scroll bar)

Master Block1 (single row)
Master Block2 (single row)
Master Block3 (single row)

Detail Block1 (orientation horizontal)

Detail Block2 (orientation horizontal)
Detail Block3 (orientation horizontal)

  ^  mb1   db1.c1  db1.c2
  |  mb2   db2.c1  db2.c2
  v  mb3   db3.c1  db3.c2
         <------------>
