Omitting Records in Union Query?

Have two base queries used for mailing labels with
id,name,address ,city,state,zip that are combined via a union query.
One base query uses home address; the other base query uses biz
address. I only want one label per person. In a few cases, I have a
record with both a home address and a biz address, which I don't want
in the labels. How or can I make the union query omit an id in the biz
address base query IF that same id has a record in the base home
address query? I'm drawing a blank on this one. Thanks for any
advice.

Go to the database window, click on Queries and click on New. You'll see you can
create an unmatched query. Use that option to create a new query and find all
the records in your biz base query that do not match any records in your base
home address query. Then build a new union query combining the new query with
the base home address query. Your new union query will not now have any
duplicate records.
