Yep, I tried partition because it seemed the best solution for what I am trying to accomplish.  I was even trying to think about returning whole numbers for times and then accomplishing the partition.
Will try your solution.
Thanks again!
Dave

Dave-

How about:

SELECT Hour(OpsTime) As OpsHour, Count(OpsTime)
FROM MyTable
GROUP BY Hour(OpsTime)

I thought the Partition function might also work to give you a range, but
Help says it works only with whole numbers, and a time value is a fraction
of a day.

Subject: [ms_access] Time calculations for flight operations

I have a field that is listed as "OpsTime".  It is the time a flight either
arrives or departs our airport.

I am interested in grouping all times as a total Ops per hour for a graph in
Access but am having a difficult time trying to determine how to do this in
one query (if this is possible).  I imagine a count function will be the
appropriate calculation.

Is this a good problem for a crosstab query to solve..... or is there
another way to sort all flight times and group them by the hour for a total
number of ops per hour?  In such a manner that I can graph the results?
(all flight times are military times)

OpsTime
07:00
07:10
07:30
08:00
08:05
08:15
08:20
08:40
08:45
08:50
08:55
08:55

This group of times will provide the following results if the query works as
I hope: 

0700 to 0759 = 3
0800 to 0859 = 9

I will use the numbers per hour of flight ops to produce a line graph
showing flight activity peaks and valleys throughout the day.

Thanks for any ideas!
Dave
