I have measurements of springflow for a few thousand unique site nos. Each
measurement has a dateof record yyyy/mm/dd. Also, each measurement has its
own source code. I need to do a check for records for all sites that have a
different source code, but the same year. basically, the table i am working
with has a field for the site number, the source of the measurement, the
date, the precision of the date (yearly, monthly, daily, other), the value of
the measurement, the type of measurement, and remarks. What I'd like to find
are measurements that have a different reporting agency, but may be based on
the same original record. the values will not be exactly the same for these
because of unit conversion and rounding errors. But what would help is to be
able to see all the records for a site that have the same year, but a
different source code. Some of the data have the exact same date, but some
are only reported as the value for a certain year.
Then I would like to be able to delete all the records for a particular site
from the source I consider least valuable (it's the same one for every site,
the one that has the lowest reporting precision).
I am pretty unfamiliar with this type of querying, I have only used Access
for limited purposes such as address labels and contact lists.
