Sum population by wards

Hi

I am trying to sum a population field that may have 140 records for
each Ward (example).

Any suggestions on the best way to do this.

I would like to have a unique record for each Ward with all the
records summed.

Thanks

Create a query that includes the Ward and Population fields. Change the
query to a Totals query by clicking on the Sigma (looks like a capital E)
button in the menu at the top of the screen. Go down to the Population field
and change Group By to Sum. When you run the query you will get the sum of
the Population for each Ward.

When you set up a full-text catalog in SQL Server and you set up the population schedule, a job gets created and scheduled under SQL Server Agent. The problem I encountered recently is when I disabled that job in SQL Server Agent, the full-text catalog continues to be populated with that schedule (every 15 minutes). So I looked at the catalog's properties and noticed that the schedule is still marked as enabled. I deleted that schedule...
