Glenda, I think that your problem is that you appear to only be referencing the table once rather than twice when you want to get the second set of data. Try linking to a second instance of the table joining on fields that will be the same. Try this out: [mstFPlus].[Last], [mstFPlus].[first], [mstFPlus].[City], [mstFPlus].[state] In(Select [mstFPlus].[L_Name] from [mstFPlus] join [mstFplus] as mstFPlus1 where [mstFPlus].[SCity] = [mstFPlus1].[SCity] and [mstFPlus].[state]=[mstFPlus1].[state] and Left([mstFPlus].[f_name], 3) = Left([mstFPlus1].[f_name],3) Having Count(*)>1) I think this should probably do the trick.

I'm trying to find duplicate information in an Access table using the below in queries. I must have something wrong because in two of the examples, Katie Lakerston and Katherine Lakerston should match, but it's not happening. Any advice appreciated. /g Last, First, City & State In (SELECT [L_NAME] FROM [mstFPlus] As Tmp GROUP BY [L_NAME],[F_NAME],[SCITY],[STATE] HAVING Count(*)>1 And LEFT([F_NAME],3) = LEFT([mstFPlus].[F_NAME],3) And [SCITY] = [mstFPlus].[SCITY] And [STATE] = [mstFPlus].[STATE]) Last, First, Birth_DT & State In (SELECT [L_NAME] FROM [mstFPlus] As Tmp GROUP BY [L_NAME],[F_NAME],[BIRTH_DT],[STATE] HAVING Count(*)>1 And LEFT([F_NAME],3) = LEFT([mstFPlus].[F_NAME],3) And [BIRTH_DT]=[mstFPlus].[BIRTH_DT] And [STATE]=[mstFPlus].[STATE]) Last, First & Zip In (SELECT [L_NAME] FROM [mstFPlus] As Tmp GROUP BY [L_NAME],[F_NAME],[SZIP_CODE] HAVING Count(*)>1 And LEFT([F_NAME],3) = LEFT([mstFPlus].[F_NAME],3) And LEFT([SZIP_CODE],5) = LEFT([mstFPlus].[SZIP_CODE],5)) ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
