MS Access: Find the most common user per month query
0
Fairly new to Access 2016 and I'm writing a query to obtain the most common user within the database per month.
So a record would be
Table1
ID Date1
1 2019-02-28
This is my code grouping the totals per month:
Month: Format([Date1],"mmmm")
TopUser: (SELECT TOP 1 [Table1]![ID] FROM [Table1] GROUP BY
[Table1]![ID] order by COUNT([Table1]![ID]) DESC)
Expectation:
Month TopUser
January 2
February 1
March 2
April 3
Result:
Month TopUser
January 2
February 2
March 2
April 2
So my code is returning back the most common user overall instead of for each month. I'm not sure if this is an access aspect that I'm misinterpreting or if its my queries.

(Select Top 1 T.ID
From Table1 As T
Where Format(T.[Date1], "yyyymm") = Format(Table1.[Date1], "yyyymm")
Group By ID
Order By Count(T.ID) Desc) As TopID
From
Table1
Group By
Format([Date1], "yyyymm")

Thanks but I get the message "Your query does not include the specified expression 'T![ID]' as part of an aggregate function".
