Microsoft Access Query - Merging two queries into one - sql

Question

Using the query wizard, I built two different queries doing similar functionalities that I am trying to combine into one query. I have two tables (same structure) that I am matching to find duplicates:
Query #1 is as follows (Include ALL records from Table 1 and only those records from Table 2 where the joined fields are equal are applied to all the columns below):
Match Table 1 Column 3 to Table 2 Column 3
Match Table 1 Column 4 to Table 2 Column 4
Match Table 1 Column 5 to Table 2 Column 5
Match Table 1 Column 7 to Table 2 Column 7
If all of those columns from Table 1 match what’s in Table 2, it will identify the duplicates (I bring in Table 2 Column 7 which will show the duplicates I am looking for).
Query #2 is as follows (Include ALL records from Table 1 and only those records from Table 2 where the joined fields are equal are applied to all the columns below):
Match Table 1 Column 3 to Table 2 Column 3
Match Table 1 Column 4 to Table 2 Column 4
Match Table 1 Column 5 to Table 2 Column 5
Match Table 1 Column 8 to Table 2 Column 8
My second query has the same 3 columns, except the last column is different.
If all of those columns from Table 1, match what’s in Table 2, it will identify the duplicates (I bring in Table 2 Column 7/8 which will show the duplicates I am looking for).
What I am trying to do:
Add an OR statement for the query to show both duplicates on matches for Columns 8 and Columns 7. Such as if Table 1 Column 7 matches Table 2 Column 7 OR Table 1 Column 8 matches Table 2 Column 8, show the duplicates.
Would this require a UNION query?
Here is the query for one of them:
SELECT TABLE1.COLUMN_3, TABLE1.COLUMN_4, TABLE1. COLUMN_7,
TABLE2.COLUMN_7, TABLE1.COLUMN_5
FROM TABLE1
LEFT JOIN TABLE2
ON (TABLE1.COLUMN_7 = TABLE2.COLUMN_7)
AND (TABLE1.COLUMN_3 = TABLE2.COLUMN_3)
AND (TABLE1.COLUMN_4 = TABLE2.COLUMN_4)
AND (TABLE1.COLUMN_5 = TABLE2.COLUMN_5);

Answer 1

The given SQL will not run because of spaces in table and column names.
This example eliminates those spaces.
SELECT
Table1.Column3 , Table2.Column3
,Table1.Column4 , Table2.Column4
,Table1.Column5 , Table2.Column5
,Table1.Column7 , Table2.Column7
,Table1.Column8 , Table2.Column8
From Table1
Left Join Table2
On
( Table1.Column3 = Table2.Column3
AND Table1.Column4 = Table2.Column4
AND Table1.Column5 = Table2.Column5
AND ( Table1.Column7 = Table2.Column7
OR Table1.Column8 = Table2.Column8
)
)

Answer 2

Create query 3; add Q1 and Q2 - join them on F7. This will result in all matches of that field.
Create query 4; add Q1 and Q2 - join them on F8. This will result in all matches of that field.
You now have 2 data sets with those matches (you call duplicates). Then the decision is how to present/display. If you need them in a single record set - write those into a single common temp table. But otherwise you can easily present them together as sub reports/forms.
