I'm trying to run a report and I need to organize it differently, this is what I have:

SerialNum | AcctNum | AcctName | Address | CallDate| UpTime%


Each time a client reports a problem, it gets logged. I do not want every single call for each serial number.

I want all of the info for the most recent CallDate

I'd really appreciate the help!
