I have a large amount data on the consumption of beverages and related information.

I would like to query the one table like

Select personname, sum(Calories), max(Calories) from tblbeers

Sum being the maximum amount of calories that the person consumed.
Max being the maximum amount of calories that was consumed of all entries for the person.

Sum and max give me the same information. Is there a work around or am i turning the screw the wrong way.

I am unsure about what you are asking. I gave what you asked just not in tabular form. do you want it in tabular form?

I want to return the upper extreme and the mode for the values in calories for all beers consumed by one person.
