[mso] Re: Access Query

If I'm understanding your sample data, it will return both values cause it
is returning a max for each Subj since they are different.  Is all your
data residing in one table?  If so, you will have to do a separate summary
query of only the Subj and SubjID, and in your MAX query, add the summary
Subj query, relate them on the ID, and return the value from the Subj
summary query instead of your main table.  This should return the desired
result.

The Subj field is the reason you're still getting 2 results, cause since it
is different, it is creating a row value that is unique, and since you need
for it to show in the results, you need to be only pulling the Subj that is
equal to the MAX SubjID.

Hope this helps, Cathy

Hi All.
I would like to create an Access query where I get the Maximum value of
something that could have more than one value.

example table:
Name            UID             Subj            SubjID
John Smith      abc123          US history      01
John Smith      abc123          Roman history   02

My desired result is:
John Smith      abc123          Roman history   02

The problem is when I put MAX on the SubjID field my query still
displays both values instead of just the one.
