Good Morning,
I'm in the process of reformatting a database at work, which contains drug-related incidents. There are two tables; incident/victim information and packaging color. The goal of my query is to be able to specify a date range and return all incidents for that time period.
However, because many incidents contain more than one packaging colors, I get repeating values for the incident/victim info table. I have thought about reducing the number of fields in the query, but they are all necessary, as we frequently need to pivot table the data and make charts, graphs, etc. The repeating values obviously throw off the numbers when manipulating the data later on.
Is there any way to make the fields blank after the first time they are displayed? So that the Date, name, etc. only display once. Maybe a Group By? I really have no idea
I've attached a test file here, with the two tables and a quick query. Any help is greatly appreciated!
