I need to compare two tables to locate the number of
matches of a certain related field. Then use those same
two tables to find the remaining records that don't have
matches. Is a MS Access query the best way to achieve this?
 
Hi Gail,

Here's a sample on how to use the Unmatched Query Wizard
ACC2000: How to Use the Find Unmatched Query Wizard

I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
