I guess I’ll have to play with that.  I haven’t needed to do the deduplication 
in Excel, so haven’t used those features.  It seems clunkier than what I’ve 
been used to doing, but it may work.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Would deduplicating the column in Excel work? I have to do that a lot with some 
of my reports. I find that reports generally give the information I need, but I 
have to manipulate the returned information into what I want in Excel.

I have another, more general, question about reports in Evergreen.  Some 
reports return information that is duplicated.  When we were on our previous 
ILS, I could use SELECT DISTINCT to eliminate rows where all the information 
was duplicated.  Is there any way to do that in Evergreen reports?  Now that 
I’m starting to need more complicated reports, it would sure be helpful to be 
able to get rid of the duplicates.

Thanks for any advice you can share!
