I've tried this James but what happens is I get multiple for the same
UID if the UID has more than one type or position...unless maybe I'm
missing a step?
for example.
UID 1010 in a query against the master table may have 3 records
UID TYPE POSITION
1010 1 1
1010 1 2
1010 2 2
My result displays UID 1010 3 times, even though I have Group By in the
Total row.

Glenda,
Have you looked into aggregate queries? Open a new query window and
pull your table in, then select the fields you want. Next click on the
Summation sign, (it looks like a giant backwards E). This turns your
query into a summation query and you can group by UID, Type and
Position. Your end result will be one record for each unique
combination of the three fields.

Hi All.
I pull data in Access like this with multiple types and positions
available. I only want 1 record for each UID in the following order.
UID Type 1 Position 1
UID Type 1 Position 2
UID Type 2 Position 1
UID Type 2 Position 2
Typically, I do it like this:
make table query to extract Type 1, Position 1 then append queries for
the other records in order listed. the append queries are based on
select queries with a not-in statement so I don't append records that
already have the UID in the original table
The end result is one table with all types and positions represented and
no duplicates.
I do it this way because each Type and Position could be multiple in the
master table.
Is there a better way for this kind of thing...something more
straightforward? Currently it take several steps to get where I'm going
and I want to streamline the process.
make table TypePosition (Type 1 Position 1) select query T1P2 (UID not
already in TypePosition) apn query T1P2 ((UID not already in
TypePosition) select query T2P1 ((UID not already in TypePosition) apn
query T2P1 (UID not already in TypePosition) select query T2P2 (UID not
already in TypePosition) apn query T2P2 (UID not already in
TypePosition)
