grouping similar data

In layout view: how do I group all the company names together who have the same value for a certain field? For instance, 10 companies all have the same booth size, but in Preview mode, it lists each company seprately with the booth size on each line. I need to have the booth size listed once with all the companies who share that common size. I have tried adding a group and using the expression for the company name as well as the booth size and it does not work. Can someone provide some detailed instructions?
Thank you,
Bil

http://www.developmentnow.comIf I am understanding correctly you want to have the booth size and then
show all companies under that that match that description. Have you tried
grouping it by the booth size and then put your companies in the detail?
