<sigh> here i am agian being dumb and not understanding...

i have a query

lognum slice1 slice2 slice3
sltotal:([slice1]+[slice2]+[slice3])
72000 300 200 250 750
72000 150 100 0 250
72001 100 200 200 500
72001 200 200 0 400

i want it to look like this....

lognum sltotal:?
72000 1000
72001 900

i remeber some kind of exclusive command but i dont think it will give me
what i want. can some one help an unlearned man?
 
i thought it might be that easy... except i dont have a totals query...
only:
select
cross-tab
make table
update
append
delete

to choose from. is this something i have to add or get?

Create a Totals query.
Group By on lognum and Sum on sltotal
