Okay, how about this...

Is there a function or a combination of functions that I can use on the
query results to find the distinct PropertyIDs from a join query?

Say my query returns 10 rows. 2 distinct properties, with 6 rates for one,
and 4 rates for another...so grouped output looks like this:

My Property One
112 Address Drive
[photo 1]
Rate Schedule 1
Rate Schedule 2
Rate Schedule 3
Rate Schedule 4
Rate Schedule 5
Rate Schedule 6

My Property Two
234 Address Drive
[photo 2]
Rate Schedule 1
Rate Schedule 2
Rate Schedule 3
Rate Schedule 4

Your search returned [#DistinctPropertyCount#]

Is there some way to calculate #DistinctPropertyCount# some way from the
results of the query? In this case, the RecordCount is correct (10 rows
returned) but what I *really* need is the number of *properties* that are
returned...

Make sense?
