I have a table like this:

Artist   Image   Title

Smith    2       Country
Smith    5       Town
Doyle    21      Cat
Lawlor   24      Ball
Jones    8       Chee         


        

Answer 1

Access has FIRSTand LAST aggregates which return the first or last record as it was entered in chronological order

SELECT Artist, FIRST(Image) AS Image, FIRST(Title) AS Title
FROM table
GROUP BY Artist
