Hi Robin, first you need to do a bit of SQL to get the counts of crime types
POSTCODETABLE = Postcode boundary table name CRIMETYPETABLE = Crime type table name Select POSTCODETABLE.POSTCODE, CRIMETYPETABLE.CRIMETYPE, Count(*) >From POSTCODETABLE, CRIMETYPETABLE Group by 1,2 Order by 1,2 You can then use this table to do your thematic maps.
