I have a simple 1 way anova coded like

How can I use the BY function to do this ANOVA for each group using another
variable in the dataset??  I tried coding it like this, but it doesn't seem
to work.

summary(ANOVA1way <- by(welldata, Analyte, function(x) aov(Value ~ WellID,
data = welldata)))

In SAS I would code it like this:
Proc sort data=welldata; by analyte; run;
Proc glm data=welldata;
by analyte;
class wellid;
model value = wellid;
run;

Look at the plyr package for a general solution to
this type of problems:

and its introductory guide on the package home page:
