Hi

First post from new member.

I have a database of 9 people spread over 26 rows. There are 60 columns of data.

One column contains unique identifier for the person, whether their data is recorded on 7 rows or 1 row.

I need MS Access to run a query that will produce 1 row per person - the new table will be 9 rows and 60 columns.

I don't understand the language used in access tutorials (I've been trying all day) and excel won't do this for me (I do understand Excel very well).

Any help for a complete access novice is appreciated and will be acknowledged.

Thanks

Rugbyman
 

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
For the 60 columns of data, is this supposed to be summarized in some fashion for each unique person? Your request is a little bit unclear about how you want this data presented except it should be one row. Please clarify.

If it is a summation then you need to run a group by query. Look at this link.
