Get 1 total from repeating values



I have a query and a report using the query that I need help getting totals
on. The query gets records from several asset protection tables involving
theft, etc. There is 1 record per case # for each suspect involved in the
case, so each case # could have several suspects. The report needs to
display a total suspect count for each banner (company has 3 different
locations) which I have working properly just doing a count in the report,
but I'm dead in the water on getting 1 sum per case #. I've tried a lot of
different things between the query and the report to no avail. Example:
case #22 has 5 subjects, total theft amount = 71.77. The 71.77 is multiplied
5 times in the report and I only need it once. HELP! Please be specific if
you're kind enough to help me; I'm very tired this morning and not the
slickest thing when it comes to Access! TIA
.
