I have the following table: Table
I am trying to write a query (that I will include in another query) to display how many account numbers there are per symbol.
I wrote the following query:
SELECT Symbol, (SELECT DISTINCT COUNT([Account Number]) FROM [Open] T2 WHERE T2.Symbol = T1.Symbol) AS Accounts FROM Open T1 GROUP BY [Symbol];
The query displays like this but it counts the same account number multiple times per symbol. EURUSD should have 3 and USDJPY should only have 1 next to it.
It should display like this.
I am trying to include this as part of another big table that has other information next to each symbol too.
I will appreciate any assistance.

Access doesn’t support count(DISTINCT ...)
. You can try
SELECT Symbol, count(*) AS Accounts FROM (SELECT DISTINCT Symbol, Account FROM Open) GROUP BY Symbol;
