Following the directions found here I am able to get a striped table and the removeduplicate works well. However, the striping is based on the rows irrespective of the grouping with removeduplicate. In the attached screen grab you can see that the first date cell is fully shaded and then each of the rows belonging to this first date are striped correctly. However, with the second and subsequent ones you can see that the date cell mimics the striping of the adjacent row.

What I would like to see if that the date cells are always not shaded. That the rows belonging to that date are striped with the first row shaded even if the last row of the previous date was also shaded. I would then like to increase the size of the border between the last row of the previous date and first row of the new date.

How might I accomplish this?
