    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a date field called 'StartDate' which is displays in the data as&lt;/P&gt;&lt;TABLE border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="97"&gt;&lt;TBODY&gt;&lt;TR&gt;&lt;TD align="right" class="xl63" height="20" width="97"&gt;2/8/2017 12:00&lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TBODY&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;&lt;P&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I want to create a list that displays the dates (StartDate) however, within the data it is possible for the same actual date to appear twice. For example&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;StartDate&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2/8/2017 15:15&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2/8/2017 12:00&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2/8/2017 17:47&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;In my script, I have transformed the date to only pull in the left 10 characters of the field by doing&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;LEFT(StartDate, 10)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; as cmpSTRTDTE so that when I create a list box, the data appears as 2/8/2017. However, there are still multiple values for 2/8/2017.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Is there a way to either in the script or in a calculated dimension only display the date once?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Ideally, I want the list to display the StartDates but only have each date appear once.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
