hey guys, I'm working on a script to display the season leading scorers for my lacrosse site and I don't know how to do the query.
I am trying to display the leaders scorers by total goals throughout the season, however I don't know how to select the sum of goals by each individual player then sort by amount of goals. how do i do this? I thought: select SUM(goals) AS leaders from stats ORDER BY number DESC; but that just takes the total amount of goals from the table, how do I add up individual goals (for each player) then sort by amount? Thanks! -------------------------------------------- -Alex "Big Al" Behrens E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Urgent E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Please be brief!)
