    Access Syntax Error

    Hi all. What am I missing in this query? Access is telling me that I have a syntax error. It works in MySQL though. Thank you!



    delete t1, t2, t3, t4
    from (
    select u.product, count(*) counter
    from (
    select * from table1 union all
    select * from table2 union all
    select * from table3 union all
    select * from table4
    ) u
    group by u.product
    ) t
    left join table1 t1 on t1.product = t.product
    left join table2 t2 on t2.product = t.product
    left join table3 t3 on t3.product = t.product
    left join table4 t4 on t4.product = t.product
    where t.counter = 1;

    syntax wise I don't see an issue other than access tends to put brackets around joins.

    (((left join table1 t1 on t1.product = t.product)
    left join table2 t2 on t2.product = t.product)
    left join table3 t3 on t3.product = t.product)
    left join table4 t4 on t4.product = t.product

    What is the description of the error?

    Otherwise suggest build up and test starting from your U query until the error appears
