I can get the listing of Unique customers

      Project 2

Customer 2
      Project 1
      Project 1

However I'm unsure as to how to only list the unique Projects within these
listings.  I've checked the archives and Dawsons (but couldn't find anything
obvious).

Try doing only localized grouping with variables (solution below). You'll see that I am only grouping the projects on the collection of records for each customer.


I hope this helps.
