Report design

I have a report that lists customers and all items sold to that customer. Using no repeat with break on customer the report works but the header titles are repeated for each break. I would also like to suppress printing of other information that is duplicated for each item such as phone number and email address. How do I clean up this report? I do need the phone and email listed but only once.
Suggestions would be appreciated.

cust  item phone email

Hello Harley,

This should give you what you are after,

Set up the report so that it is sorted by Customer and then by E-mail Address.
Remove the current break from Group Header 1 so that the header titles do not repeat.
Add a Group Header 2
Set it to break on Customer with No Repeat
Add a Group Header 3
Set it to break on Email with No Repeat
Add a Group Header 4
Set it to break on Phone Number with No Repeat
You do not want to place anything into the new Group Header 2, 3, or 4 or into the matching Group Footers.

-Ray
