Maybe with a query or two extra, you can determine a temp table, then build on that. Do an initial distinct look up on the primary fields you want as the fields in your temp table and create it, then do the required queries to get the raw data into the temp table, then do the finalized query to get the results you need. I can't think of a single step method to get what you want done. Any time I've had to take (what I call) vertical data and convert it to a horizontal format, I've always had to construct either an array in memory or create another table.
