I have a table that I wanted to do a similiar thing to what Andrew Tracey wanted to do.

Please see the attachment to see what I did:

Select Columns:      Province, Type, Count(Sub_Type) "5"

>From Tables:    National_Health_Facility_List_

Where Condition:      

Group By Columns:     Sub_Type

Order By Columns:

into Table Named:      Count_Test

MI does not want any field name other than * within the Count brackets. When I put 
"Count(*)" and then "5" after that, 5 becomes a count field name, not the number of 
records I need a count for.

Now the question is: Do we always have to get the count of all the records, not the 
number of records we want to see? If the answer is no, then how do we do it?

Yes, the query would go something like this:

Select WARD_NO, TENURE_TYPE, Count(TENTURE_TYPE) "How_Many"
>From MY_TABLE
GROUP BY WARD_NO, TENURE_TYPE
ORDER BY WARD_NO, TENURE_TYPE
Into RESULTS_TABLE

If you are using the SQL select dialog, the first line above is the
'Select Columns', the second line is the 'from Tables', the third line
is the 'Group by Columns', and the fourth line is the 'Order by
Columns'.

Dear All

I have a MapInfo table which comprises ward reference no and tenure
type. I am trying to produce a query that will list the 20 wards and a
count of how many of each tenure type there are in each ward. I want one
browser with all results on. Is this possible.

Thanks in advance
