For an example let's say that I have clients in multiple countries and I
want a list of the number of clients per country. In order to do this I
would think a statment like:

select country, count(*) clients from addresses group by country

would work just fine. I have have been working in VB on NT with odbc client
2.50.39.00.
I have tried all of the cursor combinations that I could think of, but I
still at a loss. Could there be a problem with the version of the client???

Thanks again

Jake

Im not sure I understand what it is that you are trying to do here???  Im
assuming your using PERL/SomeScriptingLang on something on NT to connect to
mysql using the ADO object...  Within your Count(*) Group by are you trying
to return a result set that contains a duplicate row count, i.e.
Column=Booger, Count(*)=2???  If you provide a little more info I might be
able to help here, if what I said above is true then maybe do something like
this

select foo, count(*) CNT from Table group by foo having CNT > 1;

Not sure on the syntax though, but something along those lines...

Evening

I think I'm losing my mind. I have a very simple query that works fine in
MySQLFront but will not work when I connect using ADO:

select booger, count(*) from nose group by booger

If I try the above query with one record It works fine. Once I try it with
more records, nothing returns.

If I try:
select booger from nose group by booger
It returns results with one or more records.

Thanks for all of your help!

Jake
