it's a bear and something I've tried to resolve from time to time.  In
straight SQL (PL/SQL) I can get the desired result by making a query
with the table listed twice, first to get the max then to get the
relationship.  I can't remember what that's called...subquery? not sure.
Anyway, I was looking for something similar in Access either with SQL or
VBA. =20

I'm sorry, am stumped without being able to make additional queries to
summarize the subject, though I'm sure it can be done, and pretty sure
the subj field is causing the problem, cause when you remove it, the max
works fine.

Last subject is not automatically associated.  A person may have subject
02 before subject 01 or subject 02 and never subject 01.

Ok, that is unfortunate.  Try using LAST on the Subj field, with MAX on
the SubjID.  It worked in my test, but I only used your 2 data rows as
sample.
My question overall regarding an access data table is, if MAX ID is
selected, will the LAST Subj automatically be associated with that ID?
If so, this may be a solution.

unfortunately I'm stuck with just the one query. I can add an additional
table such as the same query but I can't create another query outside of
this one.  in SQL, I could do it with a sub query kind of thing but
don't know how within this &*%# structure.  I only want the value
related to the max SubjID. /g

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
