Title: RE: SQL COUNT - detail record count on header records

I'm no expert but it seems that the WHERE after the GROUP BY should be HAVING instead.

Subject: SQL COUNT - detail record count on header records


Hi

I've racked my brains and searched high and low.
I can't find the correct SQL SELECT statement to
count the number of records in a detail file and
show that count in my header record.

The following SELECT statement gives me what I want
except I want to see zero in the count field if
there are no matching records in the detail file.

select a.*, b.count from som.som022clsd as a, (select phonenum,       
ordrnmbr, count(*) as count from som.sompfa21 group by phonenum,      
ordrnmbr) as b where a.phonenum = b.phonenum and a.ordrnmbr =     
b.ordrnmbr and a.conumber = '08' and a.workdate between 20010301  
and 20013030                                                      

Previously I wanted to sum a total in a detail file and show
it along the header fields but couldn't figure that out either.
Again I want to show zero in the sum field if there are no
matching records in the detail file.

Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanx, PLA
