"Ignore" Notes?

"Ignore" Notes?

Hi All,

I'm trying to produce a report that shows all child accounts under their respective parent account. I pretty much have it built, but in the "Account Name" column it's showing X blank cells under the name of each account, where X is the number of notes on the account. For example, the account name is displayed as "Bob's Building Suppy (27)" if there are 27 notes in that account, and then there are 27 blank cells under the account name in that column. Is there a way to "ignore" the notes altogether so that doesn't happen? Thanks!
