Hey everybody...

I have an issue getting this sub query stuff to work. I have done 
loads of research and still can't find exactly what I need, or even 
partially what I need to do the following:

I have a table called "locations". Within this table, I have various 
fields, though the ones I am working with per this dilemma are "city" 
and "state". There are a lot of cities 
e.g. "Daytona","Destin","Orlando", etc.) which are in the same state 
(e.g. Florida). I am working with various other city/state 
combinations as well. In other words, I will need to know how to 
build a query to pull all states from the "locations" table and list 
the cities under those states like I have it laid out in Example 2 
below.

My current query makes the results look like this (showing the state 
several times instead of only one time):

Example 1:

ALABAMA
- Huntsville
ALABAMA
- Montgomery
ALABAMA
- Talladega

CALIFORNIA
- Los Angeles
CALIFORNIA
- Sacramento
CALIFORNIA
- San Diego

FLORIDA
- Daytona
FLORIDA
- Destin
FLORIDA
- Orlando

I am trying to create a query to get the results to look like this 
(showing each state only once instead of several times, and list all 
cities underneath their corresponding state, in ascending order):

Example 2:

ALABAMA
- Huntsville
- Montgomery
- Talladega

CALIFORNIA
- Los Angeles
- Sacramento
- San Diego

FLORIDA
- Daytona
- Destin
- Orlando

etc, etc.

I don't have another table that is storing the cities, separate from 
the states. Is this the problem? Can anybody explain to me what I 
need to do to make up a query that will work to output the results 
like I need them? I greatly appreciate any assistance and/or code you 
can provide to help me.

T-H-A-N-K-S!!!
