Right-click on the field in Report Designer, select Format Field..., click on the Common tab in the Format Editor dialog, click on the conditional suppression button (the box marked x-2 to the right of Suppress) and enter the formula RecordNumber > 1 . Click Save and close to exit the Suppress Format formula editor, then click OK to exit the Format Editor.
