    Query to Compare Data

    I don't have an import table as an interim of getting to the final destination table. The table I want to do the comparison on is the final destination table. It's simply using Access tools to import the data from a spreadsheet.

    Query to Compare Data

    Both, Thanks so much for your help! I've understood what you've both recommended. The area where I'm struggling is I don't have a linked table or linked spreadsheet. Each month I upload the data to a single table. Therefore I'm looking to a comparison within the same table. I've tried adding...

So I have Month, Low, High, Medium, High, Very High If...

Both forms have the record source of my query, one combobox updates the main form and then the other updates the subform? Not sure I understand the two...

    Comparing data from month to month

    Hi Ridders, Thanks for you reply! I'm struggling to understand how that would work on a form. Perhaps this is more a form forum query. As I have 4 text boxes which have the control sources of Low, Medium, High, Very High - I want to have another 4 text boxes so I can compare side by side on...
