combining rows

Hello,

I have a question about converting a marketing table that contains repeating. I would like to take out the repeating info.

Here is the first table in CSV format:

------------------------------------------
Name,Age,TV,Radio,Other,Specify Other
John,32,x,,,
John,32,,x,,
John,32,,,x,word of mouth
Jill,44,,x,,
Jill,44,x,,,
Jill,44,,,x,from a friend
Kim,20,,x,,
-------------------------------------------

How do I combine rows in it. In other words
how do I produce something like this:


===============================
Name,Age,TV,Radio,Other,Specify Other
John,32,x,x,x,word of mouth
Jill,44,x,x,x,from a friend
Kim,20,,x,,
===============================

Since I am at a mental block, your suggestions
to achieve this in MS-Access or T-Sql will be appreciated.

Regards,
Rob

try importing the comma delimited data into table and run following qry on ur table.
it is a workaround that seems to fit ur situation/data not a way to achieve clubbing ..

select name,age, max(tv), max(radio), max(other), max(specify_other) from the table name
group by name, age.

Thanks a million! Work like a charm.

Have a great weekend...

What would one do if one doesn't want just the max and wants to show all of the answers in one row?
