Sorry... that's not a table. That's a spreadsheet.

Storing data (dates) in a fieldname makes it very difficult to create
appropriate queries. That's why you're having trouble: your table
design is not normalized; queries work best with normalized tables.

Any chance you could normalize this into a tall-thin table with three
fields, AcctNo (don't use # in fieldnames), TimePeriod, and Amount?
This would make your query vastly easier.
