Possible for a single query to output UNMATCHED in both directions?

MLH
For many versions, Access has had query wizard to
identify and list records in table A that had no matching
records in table B. But suppose that in addition to that,
I would like to see records in table B that have no matching
records in table A - at the same time and in the same dynaset.
Can that be done?

Suppose you have tblDadsGroceryL ist and tblSonsGroceryL ist
and that they should contain the same items - but they don't.
And for a little spice, suppose both lists contain 12 items. In the
past, to identify the inconsistencies in either list, I've always had
to use two queries. Do any of you know how to do it with just one?

Thx, Allen. UNION did the trick.

I use Access to run reports from various pieces of financial data. The one query that I have been unable to produce, but need is the following: A query that yields all accounts from a person that has a loan account with us but no deposit account. Luckily, all loan information is kept in a 'loan' table and deposit is kept in a 'deposit' table with a few common fields such as account number.

Hi all, I'm stuck on a query and I'm hoping that one of you can give me a boost in the right direction. I have one table that has a list of categories. Each category has a unique number and a description. I have a second table that assigns category numbers to tracking numbers. A tracking number can have multiple categories assigned to it.

I need to create a Recordset of all records that appear in one table but do NOT appear in another. To get the records that appear in BOTH tables, I can do this: SELECT tblEntity.Entity_ID FROM tblEntity INNER JOIN tblDocuments ON tblEntity.Entity_ID = tblDocuments.Entity_ID;

Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to put an aspx page inside of another? OR run an aspx page and capture the output as a string and then write this out to a page.... So for example say you have a page that takes an id number as a query string and displays different things based on that id number. If you were able to loop through running the aspx pages with id=100, id=200,

Hello all, So I'm knee deep in this import utility program, and am coming up with all sorts of "gotcha's!". 1st off. On a "Find Duplicates Query", does anyone have a good solution for renaming the duplicate records? My thinking was to take the results of the duplicate query, and somehow have it number each line where there is a duplicate (tried a groups query, but "count" won't work), then do an update query to change the duplicate to...

Hi everybody, I created a database that links one table from an ODBC data source. I saved my password and UID to the data source so neither myself nor anyone else would have to login each time (that's just bonus background info). I take this table, which is read-only, and run an APPEND query that adds new items from the table into another table I created (that has two additional fields that will be updated by the user via a form). I also...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
