Rob,

SQL is a data access and manipulation language. Not a reporting tool.
You'll need Query/400 or QMQRY or something like that to accomplish what
you want.

Thanks,

Matt, The select count gives you a total. What I need is the details and
the totals on the same output.

1. ABC
2. DEF

Total 2

My main Select is a Select Distinct so I can remove the dups.
Thank you,
Rob400
