GOAL:
How To Eliminate Duplicate Labels in Result.
FIX:
Depending on the Query and how the data is designed, duplicate values might appear when printing labels in Results. The design of the label interface does not allow for intricate data manipulation but there is a way around this behavior.
The key is to change the report's View from Label to Report.
Then set up the page for labels as detailed in Solution 15194 (excerpted below).
To suppress the repeating values follow these steps:
1) Choose Field > Properties. The Properties dialog box appears.
2) Click the down arrow next to the name field to show the list of display fields included in the query, then select the display field to modify.
3) Activate the Hide Repeating Values toggle box.
4) Click OK.
From Solution 15194:
(In order to set up the page for labels)
Go to menu item Options > Custom page size and change the page length.
This page length must be a multiple of the label size in lines plus the space(s) between labels.
For example:
label size 5 lines
space between labels 2 lines
Page size = (5 + 2) x X
