PK is phone number

PK would be the Primary Key. I don’t see much point in grouping by the primary key, especially if you want to group by LastName (unless LastName is the PK). — Tom

First, remove the HAVING clause. There is the possibility that the other two groups of ‘Thomas’ names calculate a balance of zero. If they show up when that HAVING clause is gone, verify their balances and decide if you want them included or not. After that, the other possibility seems to be that those rows also have the same FirstName, HomePhone, Balance, LastPayment, LastPayAmt and Notes; but you already said the have different FirstNames. — Tom

I think u should not use SELECT *, distinct(Lastname) FROM tablename …..;this but if it would be easier to help someone who given
the sql statement. If you have used the basic Ms Access Query, then you
need to specify; it is also easy to execute directly.Just use something like this; Select * From Tablename Where Tablename.Fieldname<>0 Group By Phone No.

We need to see the query statement in order to know. There are various possibilities. Please show the statement. — Tom
