The proper way to do this would indeed be a separate table that has (itemID,
property, value) or something like that.

The application is still being developed, so I will probably look at storing
it in separate tables so that it can easily be computed.

Then you're pretty much on your own, I'm afraid. Not a very good way to
store data :-)
You could maybe build a stored procedure, or do it in the app; but it's
gonna be code either way.

If you're looking at the string "10,23,15,10" in a single field, you'll have
to do it the hard way. If you have an int field, and four rows with those
values, you can do a group by that field and select the count() of it.

Hi
In MySQL is it possible to SUM a field which contains like 10,23,15,10. The
result I'd be looking for is
10 = count of 2
23 = count of 1
15 = count of 1
