As you can see, I'm happily exploring the capabilities of the crosstab feature of the report generator. So, I have another question:

Say I have a table with clientID, category1, category2, category3. Now each row is unique, but the combination of clientid and category1 may not be. If I just want the count of clientid for each possible value of category 1, that works. The question is, can I get a count of the number of UNIQUE client ids for each possible value of category1.

What I actually need to accomplish is this:
I have a master table with clientid (unique), category1, category3. There is a child table with clientid, category2. Neither column is unique, but the combination is. I need one report that gives me a count of the unique number ids of each possible value of category1, the same for category3 and a count of the number of ids for category2. I can get each one separately using the crosstab feature quite nicely. But, if I want it altogether, I see no other way than a view, which will give me multiple occurrences of clientid+category1 or clientid+category3 combinations. Perhaps I should try subreports?
