create a new table that pulls only unique values from a data table
I have a table that list out an employee and their name for each pay period
they were paid, I want to use the ID number as a unique key to summarize and sort the data but there are mutilple instances of the same ID number in my original table. Is there a way to sort out only unique ID numbers?

I'm not following...
What's the ID an ID of? The employee? The pay period? By the way, if your table actually has employee name in every single pay period record, you have a spreadsheet, not a relational database table. More info, please...

You could add an autonumber field to the table. The autonumbers would be
unique but you may want to have a unique employee id number, either assigned by you or a ssn. -- Milton Purdy ACCESS State of Arkansas "Isac Malmgren" wrote: I have a table that list out an employee and their name for each pay period they were paid, I want to use the ID number as a unique key to summarize and sort the data but there are mutilple instances of the same ID number in my original table.
