You can use the report designer. Define a group on the following expression:

INT( AGE(table.BirthDate) / 5)

Of course, you need to write the AGE function before.
Also, set the order on BirthDate.

You don't need a loop to do it. DIMENSION is only for array definitions. Please read the Help on it. You cannot print from an array.
