Calculating in a Query Dilemma

3 New Member
I'm attempting to create a query that will sum data based on a certain field.
i.e.
Column 1-Date
Column 2-Pitches Thrown on That Day
Column 3-Pitchers Name

I'd like the query to count the total number of pitches thrown by each pitcher on a user-specified time frame ([Start Date]<[End Date]) and, if possible, count the occurences of records for that pitcher as well (would be the # of starts this season). Any help is appreciated!

Ok, what have you tried so far?

I have a dlookup() expression set up in a column of the query - and I know what's wrong, I just don't know how to fix it! (My last statement in the expression points to itself - "[Name]=[Name]"... I just don't know what to put to get it to 'loop' through)

Right now the query is just pulling the first record found so - easiest way to put it:

What I want:

Date Name Pitches Thrown Total Pitches Thrown
1/1/07 John Smith 17 17
1/13/07 Mark Johnson 13 13
1/17/07 John Smith 9 26
1/22/07 Mark Johnson 22 35


What I'm getting:

Date Name Pitches Thrown Total Pitches Thrown
1/1/07 John Smith 17 17
1/13/07 Mark Johnson 13 17
1/17/07 John Smith 9 17
1/22/07 Mark Johnson 22 17

Have you tried using the totals? In Query Design, click View > Totals. This lets you set up an aggregate query and grouping values.

What does the message "calculating...." mean in the lower left status area of a form? I have a form with no calculated, concatenated or lookup fields, yet it displays this msg. The form takes forever to open and I'm wondering what it's "calculating" and if that's the bottleneck. Thanks.

The solution to my dilemma seems straight-forward, yet my mind has not been forthcoming with a direct route. My Project form has a tab control with multiple sub-forms; these distinct sub-forms relate addresses (multiple addresses); companies, contacts, and tasks to each project (one to many). My challenge lies with the task sub-form which links to the Project form through ProjID. The task record links back to the respective master...
