Sep 20, 2016 at 13:46 comment added Dùn Caan Ok thanks, so basically there is no way to just quickly open up a table and create a group by query (such as in Access) - I need to script with arcpy? As far as I know Select by Attribute only allows adding a Where clause, not Group By etc.
Sep 20, 2016 at 13:35 comment added artwork21 I've updated my answer, there are many examples of querying data on this forum and others (search for arcpy query data, or select layer by attribute). Once you have done some research if you are stuck on a particular part you may ask another question and post your code noting where you are stuck.

Sep 20, 2016 at 13:28 comment added Dùn Caan Thanks, but could you give me a rough example of how you would go about creating a simple query - would this be through arcpy within the ArcGIS environment?
