Hello All, I've got an SQL question. I have a database that contains Reviews of some of a clients publications. The client is interested in generating some summary reports and I simply can't wrap my head around a single SQL query (if that's possible) that will generate the information I'm looking for.
The one they are most interested in is this... We have a table (built on user submissions) that has something like this... DocName DocSubj Usefulness Processors Upgrading 1 Processors Upgrading 2 Hard Drives Upgrading 1 Printers Reviews 3 They want to get something like this... Subject # Reviews Avg Rating Upgrading 3 1.3 Reviews 1 1 And I'm just missing something... I'm sure it has to possible but I can't think of good way to do this. (The only way I can think of is to run one query to grab all the distinct subjects, loop over that resultset and then fetch the count and average for that particular subject on each iteration) Any advice is greatly appreciated.
