I'm doing a fairly complex join, and the recordcount of that join is a
different number than I actually need because I group the output. For
instance, I might have a recordcount of 13, but since the output is grouped
around, say, PropertyID, what you really see, are 2 properties. One with 7
rates, and one with 8 rates, from the join.

This means that my query returns 8 PropertyIDs from one property, and 7
PropertyIDs from another property. What I'd like to do, is somehow come up
with the count of unique propertyIDs from the query results. I thought,
rather than run another query to get count and have two queries, I'd rather
try to use the existing query and determine the count of unique PropertyIDs
from the single, correct query.

I had an idea to loop over that query, populating some sort of data
structure but possibly checking for the existence of that PropertyID before
inserting it, ending up with a list or a struct with only unique propertyIDs
in them. Then, simply get the length or number of items in the array or
struct.

Am I approaching it the right way? Would it be easier (and by easier, I
mean, least amount of code overhead as possible) to use a struct, or an
array to do this?
