Hello,
I am an experienced Excel and VBA user who is rather new to Access, though I do have some FileMaker (excuse the F word) experience. I am using Access 2000 SP-3.

My basic table setup (for the part we are interested in) is this:

I also am generating the following report (report based on saved query; query not shown):

Where Mark Brown, Andrea White, Austin Black, ... are all records in the Personnel table.

What I am needing to do, (both for simplicity and to save paper space), is to combine the Personnel names that are all related to a particular Engine-Cell record into one entity (perhaps an unbound textbox), so that instead of:

Brown, Mark
White, Andrea
Black, Austin

the report would read:

Brown, White, Black

on the same line. Or if you wanted to get fancy:

M. Brown, A. White, A. Black

but I believe I can do such extra string formatting on my own. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Exactly what I was looking for. It seems I need to do a lot more research on the internal loops of events that happen within Access. Repped...

P.S. - If you have any outstanding resources for learning these internal loops of events, or resources that highlight the most important and give examples on how they can be utilized, let me know. Until then... TO GOOGLE!
