[AccessD] Help with code

No code necessary.  Here's an example of how to do this with a query, on
tblGrades.  There are three fields.  Student, GradeLevel and GPA:

SELECT T1.Student, T1.GradeLevel, T1.GPA, (SELECT Count(*) FROM
tblGrades WHERE GradeLevel=T1.GradeLevel) AS [Kids in Grade], (SELECT
Count(*) FROM tblGrades WHERE GradeLevel=T1.GradeLevel and GPA>=T1.GPA)
AS [Rank in Grade]
FROM tblGrades AS T1;

The last two columns will return the number of students in that grade,
and the rank of that student within that grade.

Subject: [AccessD] Help with code

I am trying to Rank Student scores within a grade within a school.  I
got the majority of code from the internet and it worked fine except
that I need to loop through the records by grade and I won't know how
many records are in each grade.  I made a loop to count the records in
the grade but then how do I get back to the first record in that grade
in order to rank it.  I may have my loop in the wrong place I don't
know.  There are only 2 records in grade 4.  The third record starts
grade 5 and there are 145 in grade 5 and 161 in grade 6.  I can send a
spreadsheet for anyone who would like some data to play with.  Thanks in
advance for the help.
