I'll chew on this a take a stab at it in the morning.  This report shows 
Attendance for a Class (or classes) for a date range.  I have a date band on 
the report so it starts a new page for each date.  The report shows each 
person's name and either an A or P.  I'm not sure how to do all this in one 
table and not quite sure how the 1-1 link would work, but my brain is a 
little fried right now.

Thanks for the help,
Kevin

You can replace your whole table with a summary table perhaps?
Or Link your summary table 1-1 with the other table.
To link 1-1, create another table with the linking field and other
fields for your counts.
