Hi, everyone
I'm  beginner in access and I need your help to understand how to creat a query that selects data from two tables in order to
produce a report listing the departments employees and their corresponding salaries and a reprt ensuring it prints each
department's name once only and that the departments and their employees are listed in alphabetical order:
table 1( department ID - department name - telephone number)
table 2( employee ID - surname - fornames - DOB - date employed - salary - Department ID)

1. Selecting data: Have you made the correct relationships? All you will need to do is to make a query/report with the required fields and you should be away.

2. Report: To make listings only appear once for say, an employee, use the Group & Sort feature.

If you like, you may also want to take screenshots (filled with example data of course Smile) and show them so that we understand how it goes more clearly.

try have a look at this page http://www.bcschools.net/staff/AccessHelp.htm

this is for access 2000 but I am pretty sure later versions have some similarity to it.

cheers
