I think this is right....

An Access DISTINCT = DISTINCTROW ie

ACCCESS only accepts SELECT DISTINCT [combination of values of all
columns in each row you are outputting] 

This is not such a big problem (unless it is a subquery) as you can do a
SELECT DISTINCT count(unique_keyvalue) AS mycount,
column_name(s)_containing_values_you_want_to_be_distinct
