3 query solution.
Build two queries that return the addresses. One for each type.
SELECT *
FROM AddressTable
WHERE AddressType = "HOR"
SELECT *
FROM AddressTable
WHERE AddressType = "Proposed HOR"
In a third query link those two queries to the Person table using an outer join.
SELECT <Person Stuff Fields>
, <HOR Address fields>
, <Proposed HOR Address fields>
FROM (PersonTable LEFT JOIN queryHORAddresses
ON PersonTable.PersonID = queryHORAddresses.PersonID)
LEFT JOIN queryProposedHORAddresses
ON PersonTable.PersonID = queryProposedHORAddresses.PersonID
Don't create a table to use this data. You should be able to use the
information directly from the query.
If you don't know HOW to use the SQL view to create queries and cannot figure
out the process to make the queries in design view, post back. I will try to
give you some step by step on doing all this in query design view.
