If I understood your suggestion correctly you were suggesting to have

select LastName, FirstName, Phone, Type from People left join Phones on People.PersonID = Phones.PerrsonID

In the report we'll have

Last Name First Name  Home Phone(s)       Office Phone(s)     Cellular   
LastName  FirstName   Phone (Print When Type='Home') ...

My question is - how dd you get all the phones on the same line using this approach ? I believe it would not work this way and all phones would end up on a new line per phone.
