A very common problem.

There are 2 reasons. 

1. The query itself is returning multiple rows.  That is the result set does not contain single distinct rows but multiple rows.
 
Eg:

Country             State                   City                      Schools
INDIA                  GUJ                    AHM                        40
INDIA                  GUJ                    AHM                        50
INDIA                  GUJ                    AHM                        60

2.  BO has the tendency to sum up numbers if all the cols are of type text..
So in above case we


Country             State                   City                      Schools
INDIA                  GUJ                    AHM                        150

Hope this clarifies..
