Select most current date of duplicate employee records

[Guest]

I need help wtih this one. I have a database that contains training
records. Each employee attends a certain class several times on different
dates. I need to creat a query that selects the last time that the employee
attended a certain class. Then I will need to do a calculation to that date
to show me how many years it has been since they attended. That last part I
can get just fine.

Thanks for any assistance I can get.

Make a normal select query on the table, then while in design view go View >
Totals, and notice the new line headed Total: that appears in teh grid;
leave its setting to the default Group By under name and class, and change
to Max under date. This query will return the past data per name per class.

HTH,
