Hi Frank

That would be GROUP BY to get aggregates. See if this gives you what you want -

SELECT LGSESN, COUNT(*) AS SESNCNT FROM anloga
WHERE LGSESN NOT LIKE '%ARCHIVE%'
GROUP BY LGSESN
order by LGSESN

By the way, this could perform rather poorly - I think it requires a full table scan, due to the NOT LIKE, for sure, and , even more, wildcards on both ends of the comparison value. Unfortunately, I'm not sure there is an alternative.

Hi Folks, this statement runs fine;

but if I want to only have each LGSESN output a single line with the total number of hits for all the LGSESN's, what's the syntax for that?


Is there any tip sheets or manuals for learning SQL?

Thanks, Frank
