Gustav, This does not give the results I need. I believe it is because this does not take into consideration a phone number being made primary...a second time...There may be a number of rows for the same pro_cm_seq...and the last one is now set to primary. Sorry for the confusion... Thanks, Mark P.S...This is something the company bought...It's not my monster...just something I was handed...lol >From: Gustav Brock <gustav at cactus.dk> >Reply-To: Access Developers discussion and problem >solving<accessd at databaseadvisors.com> >To: Access Developers discussion and problem >solving<accessd at databaseadvisors.com> >Subject: Re: [AccessD] Query giving different results each time >Date: Wed, 28 Jul 2004 17:57:27 +0200 > >Hi Mark and Scott > >Maybe I'm dense but - given your example data - this gives you exactly >what you are asking for: > > SELECT > bo, > phone > FROM > tblPhone > GROUP BY > bo, > phone > HAVING Count(pro_cm_seq)=1; > >/gustav > > > > The table in question uses the following fields: > > bo_id...unique number string for each customer > > profile_cm_seq...unique number string for each phone number > > primary_ind...yes/no filed indicating primary > > Effdt...date row is active > > Phone...phone number > > > Each time a phone number is added...or changed...multiple rows are >added. > > If you have the following row > > bo pro_cm_seq Primary effdt phone > > 10 86547 Y 5/21/2004 888/555/1212 > > > and you add a new PRIMARY number336/555/2222 today...the following rows >will > > be added: > > bo pro_cm_seq Primary effdt phone > > 10 86547 N 7/28/2004 888/555/1212 > > 10 11235 Y 7/28/2004 336/555/2222 > > > > So now...I need the most current PRIMARY Phone number...but I have 2 >records > > that show as PRIMARY with 2 different numbers...
