Highlight multiple sales
Don Miller 
    
16 months ago
Hi Richard. I am an estate agent. I have a database to record sales which has a table to list the individual properties, and another table to record the individual sales for that property. Sometimes we sell the same property more than once, so there are two plus records in the sales table, and just the one in the property table. I am trying to write a query that highlights when a property has more than one sale against it. I have tried a Dsum lookup, duplicate query and VBA but I'm stuck. Can you help please?

Hi Don
Try Dcount in the query. (count the sales)

I would use an Aggregate Query for this. Join the two tables and use the Count function. Avoid "D" functions in queries and continuous forms. I've got a video on something similar to this coming out soon. Stay tuned.

The aggregate query approach worked fine thank you.
