can I state criteria within a report to eliminate duplicates?

Hi, I have a many to many relationship database where a Project can have
multiple languages in it, but a language can also be involved in multiple
Projects.

I have a report driven by a query. The query needs to allow these 'languages
involved in muliple projects' through, because they are valid, but they are
fouling up my report grouping, appearing twice in a given Project grouping,
instead of once.

This is what's appearing on my report (grouped on the left column):
Project A Language 1 involved in Project A (correct)
Project A Language 2 involved in Project A (correct)
Project A Language 2 involved in Project B (this is the unwanted double)
Project B Language 2 involved in Project B (correct)
Project C Language 3 involved in Project C (correct)

Is there some way for me to state criteria in the report so that the ID for
column 3 must match that of column 1 in order to appear in this group? Would
this criteria be stated in a control box?

Thanks for any help you can give,
Harold
