    Combine query results

    Hi. I am quite new to access so please bear with me. The scenario is that I am trying to design a databse for nvq assessment. within that there is reviews. each candidate as a review which is listed in table eg.

    review id candidate_id date of review
    1 mr a 01/01/11


    2 mr b 01/01/11
    3 mr c 01/01/11
    4 mr a 02/02/11
    5 mr b 02/02/11
    6 mr c 02/02/11

    with the canidate being linked to a candidate.

    what i want is to have another list that only picks up the last date or review id for each person which would give

    review id candidate_id date of review
    4 mr a 02/02/11
    5 mr b 02/02/11
    6 mr c 02/02/11

    Thanks

    I have no idea what a "nvq assessment" is.

    Perhaps you could elaborate on what you're trying to accomplish and also show us
    -what you have tried, and
    - the structure of your tables.

    I would look into the MAX() function, and GROUP BY function.

    If you get stuck come back, and im sure someone will be able to help you out.

    Good Luck.
