Reference Specific Continuous Form Control

[Guest]

Is there a way to reference particular "lines" and particular controls on
those "lines" of a continuous form?

My aim is to display the first occurance of a given value only (for one
control). ie.

Group 1 The Drive 750
Group 1 The Close 850
Group 1 The Lane 900
Group 2 The Road 800
Group 2 The Street 850

becomes,

Group 1 The Drive 750
The Close 850
The Lane 900
Group 2 The Road 800
The Street 850

How can I do this?

Thanks,

Dave

Can be done with reports by changing the Hide Duplicate to Yes
There is no property in the form fields that can do the same thing.

To do that in the form, there will be code involved, and you wont be able to
change the value in this fields, it will be read only.

I wouldn't suggest using code in the form to do that, but I would be happy
to assist if needed.

Is there an easier way to get the same affect? Something along the lines of
MS Project outlining would be brilliant.

The values do not need to be editable, since this form is never used for
data entry. The only reason I need it is to make the form easier on the eye.
Having duplicates for 10 rows of the form makes it hard to see the pertinent
information.

I don't mind a bit of code.

Thanks,

Dave
