[AccessD] Duplicates Query

Hi Rocky

Use First or Last or Max or Min - just one that will return only one PK of the records where the field named "name" holds identical values.

 Gustav:

Looks right but it has step 2 as:

2. Create a totals Query1 which shows GroupBy the name, and First of the PK.

I assume totals query = summation query.  But "GroupBy the name" - what does
'name' refer to?  And how to do First of the PK?

TIA

Rocky

Dear List:

I used the find duplicates query wizard to make a query to find duplicate
records in a table.  Is there a quick way to then delete all but one
occurrence of the duplicated records?
