"Select single * " in ACCESS 2000

I am using Access2000 . In a query window, after selection of a group
of records using aggregate function "group by", I want to
retrieve only one record from each group including ungrouped fields
also.
For example, from the following records,

A B C
A B D
A B E
A H F
A H G,
i am grouping on first and second fields . I want results
like this:
A B C
A H G .
The selection of C, D or E could be first matching value or random ,
but it must be included in the results.

Is this possible in Access ? Is there any workaround ?

Thanks in advance .

Create field "fldNewFiel d: left([oldfield],2)" and group on that

Then change the parameter for the old field from "Group by" to "Last"
or "First".

Using "SELECT * " is a bad practice even when using a VIEW instead of a table? I have some stored procedures that are identical with the difference of one statement in the WHERE clause. If I create a single View and specify also in this View the WHERE clause that is common in these stored procedures, I will have the new stored procecures changed to be like:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
