One thought is to use queries to create 2 new tables. One could 
contain customer id and info and include one row for each 
distinct customer. The other could contain the items purchased 
with one row for every item along with the customer id stored in 
the customer table. 

This might resolve your issue and the result would be a more 
normalized way of storing the data (i.e., you would not have the 
customer info repeated as it sounds like you do now.)
